This Infinity


This infinitesimal death

I capture within my own breath

Many feelings I did kill

Now I will forever be still

And so I now leave this place

And so forever abandon my grace

So I crawl through the needles and I stand in the fire

And accept my situation is rather dire

I fall through this infinity, and call my own name

And then I am completely overcome by shame

Falling through this infinity, I call my own name

And then I decide to succumb to the flame
