As I Die


As I hold my breath,
With my hand on my heart
I face the wind,
Carrying your scent, tearing me apart

I gaze at the landscape,
For a sign of life
I close my eyes,
As I reach for my knife

Come my friend, fight no more
Free yourself from this tortured life

My blade, shimmering in the sun,
Bringer of light
Sits poised in my hand,
Feeling my might

As it turns, gleaming, flashing
I look to the sky
Freedom awaits me,
So I must die

Come my friend, give up now
Free yourself from this tortured life

Falling, spiralling down,
Descending into madness
Deciding my own fate,
Leaving this world of hate behind

Far away, I hear an echo
An angels voice is calling me
Carried on the whispering winds
It reaches me before my blade

Falling, spiralling down,
Descending into madness
Deciding my own fate,
Leaving this world of hate behind

A song flies through the valley
In my mind I recognize
A familiar chant, so close to me
I cannot fathom this impossibility

Come my friend, give up now
Free yourself from this tortured life

Is this real
Or is it a dream?
I hear my beloved call
Shall I yet be redeemed?

Hope on the horizon
As I hold my breath
Though I can't see my love
I no longer choose death

The fool! He fails to see,
My gift of immortality
I shall make him understand,
Or I shall burn his fatherland

Falling, spiralling down,
Descending into madness
Deciding my own fate,
Leaving this world of hate behind

Freedom!

I will not die!
You will now die!
