Look around You'll see the lights are fading
The streets are dark and the moons not waning
The words that brought this night are on my lips
It's getting harder not to run from this
I always knew one day would come to this
It's almost too late now it's hit or miss
This nights end would grant my every wish
The earth around me is falling away
My tongue draws closer to ending the pain
The worst mistake I ever made in one breath
I never thought my lungs could breathe such regret
I made my choice, I shut the door
There's been no sunrise, and I'm alone
No turning back, no moving on
What freedom gave is too far gone
Now I sit in darkness thinking back
I should have known that breath would be my last
I curse the ground they're kneeling on
And when the air swallows their shame
I'll watch them suffocate in their own mistakes
Until they can't bear to live another day
The worst mistake I ever made was bleeding for the truth
I stand between the gates of after, tears or laughter
I hear them call my name I stand behind the gates of never,
Sealed forever, and watch them fade away
