Still I Feel a Need To Follow
The darkness calls for me and in the trees i hear it whisper
ever so softly
it knows me by name now
it understands my pain and it promises me no more misery
swears it will take me away from this disenchanted existence that has forever
denied me satisfaction
denied me life
i take it's sweaty hand and i follow
into the deadness
eternally
into nothing
