Eye of Death


The sadness and sorrows we all live through

We wish our wish would not be a lie

But for it to become alive

Dark lights away from the night

Glare at the depth of the moon

And at the eye of death itself

Love is broken and life is ruined

We all have a reason to live

But I want to end it

And I don’t want it to be here today

For my life has already been ruined

In the eye of death
