To live or to die – that is the question!
For living means going on
On this endless path till it ends
As for dying is meeting the unknown…
I live so I can die,
So why can’t I die to live
Forever somewhere I don’t know?
Shameless words
brought with the north wind
As shame for me is pride to you
And to die with pride
is to die with lies…
is to make peace with your shame
your sins, your mind…
To cease to be
To cease to see
Become a ghost
In others’ lives
But to insist to go on
is to live with shame and lies
From the people you love
The ones that you now hate
It sounds like pure fate,
Which I wish I put a stop to!
But who am I do decide
if I should live
if I should die
Maybe just on my mind
I keep these fearful sighs!
Forgive, fate,
Forgive, life…
Whatever decision I make
it is not yours
But mine!
