Life or Death?


Darkness is coming Sound beats against the walls It is desperate to escape The terror The terror There is no place to go Stay and be slaughtered Leave and starve Move to the beat Hear it in your soul Let it take you over It is the only way to survive Give your spirit to the air Dance with the flames Feed the sky Die so that you might live Else you will live to die Blackness closes over the walls Time is up What will you choose?
