Momento Mori; Mea Culpa

On a road away from here... 
Peace vaguely shows itsself. 
I'm headed where I shouldn't be 
With nothing left, here to fear. 
All hope I had has gone away... 
My loss, I can no longer stop. 
This pain swelling within me, 
Is here to stay. 
Another day, withers by, 
Another hour of misery, within I dwell. 
Drowning in sorrow...sleeping in Hell. 
Now I just wait to die. 
This is my fault, I'm all to blame. 
No where left to go that I care to see... 
I'll run no more from intracranial torment. 
Can't run away from all of this pain. 
It was left here just for me.
