Death
Death takes us to a better place
Or some might say to me
I don't know where I stand
Or what I think
Does death really gives us relief?
When you hurt that much
To a point of breaking down
It seems like a really good idea at that point
To slowly be put out of your misery
To leave everything behind
Selfish a bit don't you think?
Death takes us to a better place
Or some might say to me
I don't know where I stand
Or what I think
Does death really gives us relief?
