The world is fill’d with far too much pain,

Where everyone seems to end up lying,

Living like this I don’t have much to gain,

Eventually we are all dying,

So many people just cannot go on,

I will explain this all in my letter,

What if it’s a game, and I am a pawn,

Here I am, in my coziest sweater,

After some time, I am ready to die,

With no fear I finally say Goodbye.
