The End, the Beginning, Or An Escape
I see the fire burning in the distance
For the end of a lifetime right here
There is no way of knowing
When the fire will burn for us
I have no regrets
I have no remorse
I have lived for who I am
I have loved who I chose
I hated who I chose
I have No more
I feel it all around
My skin is tingling
I hear it the sound
In the distance it calls
There is a smell
The stench of death
The taste the terrible taste
Of fresh dirt
Was this the end
A new beginning
Or just an escape
From life?
