Everything around me is dark
There's a feeling deep inside me
And it says I'm not alone
The spirits surround me
And wave their hellos
This feeling is bubbling to my fingertips
So I wave back, knowing I'll be there
Because someday we'll all die
Not at the same time, of course
But knowing there may not be a forever
Is comforting to some
Spirits are encircling me
Singing in a silent scream
Telling me they desire to be
But I can't do anything if I don't dream.
Loving this and leaving it so suddenly,
It's painful, loving, leaving, and living a lie like this
Wanting death and his final kiss
Yearning to be turned into nothing and free
I want to be a spirit
I want to be set free
I want this stupid feeling
To be stomped out of me
I want to go back to being
Nothing at all
I want to love oblivion
Embrace my oncoming fall
Crimson lies to crimson tears
Scarlet blood and ice-cold fears
Torrents of a life mistaken
Are falling into a singed history.
And now I'm with the spirits
The sleep of forever is happiness
