The Close Beyond - Solution .45

Left to devices

All of my own innovation

To the screaming end

Of what has always been

Whenever the dying is calling

I will go

To last reasons jagged edge

Now I know for what I am

Is wrong again

Out by the ledge

Out of reach

Further now to

A close beyond

Why are we trying to live

When all we know

Is just how to die

Left to abide defeat

In the long gone past

Not knowing this might be

What will tip the scales

Still nothing will fail me

As I am going through

The line simply

Must be crossed

Now I know for what I am

Is wrong again

I hear the dark

Smell the fear

Nil at hand

But a close beyond

I never brought anybody

To where our faith is gone

I am the last unrepentence

Bringing down the hail

Of storm and fire

Now for once I am on my own

Must make a final decision

Against this driving force

Or else I will find it

All in vain

I never asked to be challenged

The pain I bear is mine

And mine alone

Now I know for what I am

Is wrong again

Why are we trying to live

When all we know

Is just how to die

Why are we trying to live

When all we know

Is just how to die
