A Bitter Twist of Fate
Slowly drifting away<br/> Bright white light fades to gray<br/> With aged hands<br/> I shake the hourglass hoping the sand flows<br/> away,all in vain<br/> I plead mercy in cries of pain<br/> With sore limbs<br/> Limping behind the future<br/> <br/> A bitter twist of fate<br/> Looking through my options<br/> Just undying pain<br/> A sour taste of hate<br/> Ripe fruits fall<br/> Dying humans live<br/> In a long lasting struggle<br/> Crying mouths call<br/> <br/> The fall is harder the higher you stand<br/> The knots must be loosened by aged hands<br/> <br/> Lying in everlast<br/> Living my moments in the past<br/> With blind eyes<br/> I stare at the ceiling hoping it will<br/> fall,ending the tale<br/> My cries of mercy in pain did fail<br/> With aged hands<br/> I am shaking the hourglass<br/> <br/> A bitter twist of fate<br/> Looking through my options<br/> Just undying pain<br/> A sour taste of hate

I stepped into this life with no hope for the future<br/> Like a fresh candle never to be lit as the wick is<br/> damp of moisture<br/> Placed in a corner eventually,seeing it all pass by<br/> Lain hidden by humanity,but I shouldn't be hidden,<br/> I shouldn't even lie<br/> <br/> Fine,your terrors convulsed me<br/> But I shouldn't be helpless<br/> <br/> Unloved by life<br/> I'll be godblessed to eternity<br/> <br/> I rose up in this life,<br/> smelling a sweet scent of vengeance<br/> I put bitterness in your assorted sweets and<br/> chocolate,a deadly dose you can't sense<br/> You should've had me blinded,<br/> now I can see all your lies<br/> Truths aren't made up,they're here to be found,<br/> they're here to untie the ties<br/> <br/> Fine,your terrors convulsed me<br/> But I shouldn't be helpless<br/> <br/> Unloved By life<br/> I'll be godblessed to eternity<br/> <br/> I'm now free to live.I ventured to a new day<br/> You have abused your rights to remain human,there is <br/> <br/> just one right way<br/> Risen up from laying hidden<br/> to commence a new morning<br/> A new morning to break out to a beautiful new day,<br/> all a new beginning<br/> <br/> Fine,your terrors convulsed me<br/> But I shouldn't be helpless<br/> <br/> Unloved By Life<br/> I'll be godblessed to eternity

I am looking for a better paradise<br/> Where my soul is comfortable flying<br/> Is it in the sky or in my mind<br/> It seems to me so unreal<br/> Things could be better<br/> <br/> After death<br/> I am ashes<br/> Lying on the ground<br/> Waiting for the golden gates to open<br/> <br/> I am part of earth<br/> In balance I walk<br/> I am the dust<br/> Whirling in the light<br/> <br/> Join me in my search you weak blinded fool<br/> And you will find the path where angels dwel<br/> So ride together with me<br/> Through our shredded dreams<br/> In a nowhere time near we are looking<br/> For a better paradise<br/> <br/> After death<br/> I am ashes<br/> Lying on the ground<br/> Waiting for the golden gates to open<br/> <br/> I am part of earth<br/> In balance I walk<br/> I am the dust<br/> Whirling in the light
