Let me die tonight
The sound of sweet peace will never come so quickly, but defeat lingers in the air.
Death shows me no mercy, he laughs as I fall and beg, he doesn't care.
My screams in the night are drowned out by the wind, as I beg for forgiveness for all that I have done.
But however, I do not beg death or the one greater, I beg forgiveness from you.
I am nothing just another waste of space among the rest.
I am nothing special just another scar upon flesh.
I have accomplished nothing as if I learned nothing from the past.
I have failed my love ones, of worse of all myself.
Let death come to me tonight, take a hold of my hand old friend .
Take all the pain away I am in, the pain that that keep me screaming.
It's not just physical, but so much unbearable feeling that I can not escape, please give me my fate.
I shall not pray, I will not fight, but please death let me die tonight.
