Brink Of Extinction

Jason Mui

til this day
i'll never forget the way
she looked at me
hazel green eyes
that sparkled in the sunlight

til this day
i'll remember her gaze
when she walked away
she said goodbye
then faded in the moonlight

TORTURED THE SOUL
HOPELESS..SO COLD
DESPERATE MOANS
ONCE AGAIN, I'M ALL ALONE...

pushing me to the..
brink of extinction
throwing me into..
a pit of devastation
b*llsh*t me some more...
somewhere in between
lies the truth
nothing is gonna...
stop me from seeing her

torch that she holds
will light the way
through the darkness
out of the catacombs

THE FORBIDDEN CATACOMBS!!!

torch that she holds
will light the way
through the darkness
we'll find a way home
