the final paradox
The Final Paradox
Standing on my ledge,
I know this life’s not meant for me.
I look down and all around,
Relief is all I see.
One step is all it takes,
But I just sit here and I cry.
What is it that still holds me back?
Please…push me; Let me fly!
I can’t take this any longer.
This life that I abhor,
I want to end it now.
I can’t be here anymore!
It’s odd that what you are,
This thing deep inside of me,
You’re seen as what keeps me alive,
But you’ll soon be the death of me.
Supposedly we all live for something,
But for me, I just don’t know.
What I feel is what I have.
Absolutely zero.
Why can’t you just show yourself?
Bring some meaning to my life!
You, and you alone have the power.
Bring a pleasant end to this bitter strife.
But now it’s just too late.
You blew your final chance.
You’re in your jewels and in your gown,
But you’ve missed the final dance.
You see, I could sit here and wonder
Where things went wrong and why.
But why would I go through shit like that
If I could simply fly…..
