Cannot let it be

Time and lies will do all they can.

When you can't breathe,

when you're falling apart at the seams.

What a tumultuous life

When the foundations of your wisdom crack.

Can't let it be,

the abyss of your narcotics-coated mind

a drug-induced state of euphoria

the bravest part of you is locked away, hidden in the farthest recesses of your soul.

Can't scream anymore

With nothing else to anchor you

and you just float away

with this charcoal sky

racking cries and mournful intuition

broken stubs of once-graceful wings bring you down

The loving embrace of sullen darkness

The warm womb of earth beckons

You fall back to reality

and still you cannot let it be.

And when all is said and done,

Your coffin wil be lined with the hardened blood of your enemies

And you will never sleep, even in death

While you reside in your blissfull ignorance

how you still feel all hopelessness is beyond me

You cannot let yourself be free
