2. It's a Great Day To Be Alive (How Much More Am I Expected To Take?)
My final exit will one day come for me,
but when I die I'll die alone, anonymously.
My true loved ones won't grieve. They won't have any reason to.
They'll live their lives believing, I'm still living mine the way I sincerely want to.
You may think this way of life a joyless, lonely one.
You may be right but I'm convinced it's my only safe one.
A solitary life is the only way of life available that works for me.
Only when I'm home alone do I ever truly feel any sense of serenity,
but then there's a knock on my door or my telephone rings
and I'm faced with more tragedy.
I sincerely can't take another loss. I feel it would be the end of me.
Official Notice: On my birthday in the year 2010
I will "die" and never see or hear from my loved ones again.
Please don't be mad and please don't be sad.
I'll still be living my life. I won't really be dead.
True Happiness it seems is beyond my dreams,
but True Solitude can offer me some joy and serenity instead.
