I'm not afraid to die.
I see my old friend sitting there,
enticing me to join her,
offering me the treats I once enjoyed,
the love I found within
and all I feel is pain
the old friend is waiting on
she haunts me, relentlessly
offers of peace.
offers of freedom
but I fight on,
I can't go back,
I wont go back
I fight on, the pain is nothing,
the peace false hope
the freedom empty
but the old friend she waits on
she knows one day I will give in
she knows my will is weak
she offers me freedom
she offers me peace
and yet I fight
I walk the hard line
I go on alone
but still she waits
I taste the treat, so bitter sweet,
the price so high
but I'm not afraid to die
the knife so cold
the blood so warm
I feel the release
taste the freedom
I watch as I die
I now walk with her
in this freedom I once felt
all an illusion
my life forfeit
this reality no more real then my mind
but i no longer walk alone
