Fading Away

in this phantom prison where i find myself
losing all hope all will to keep living in this hell
with every breath i take i make a dying wish
it gets harder and harder to see the point of all of this

this life, the broken existence that i call home
has deepened the sorrow of the seeds that i have sown
i can't erase or take back what is in my heart
i want to finish this, one swift cut, before yet again it starts

solutions of my own breeding become insufficient once again
there is no false illusion of this threat that surly reigns
as i break the vessel unleashing all of my screaming pain
fates walls shattered, written with my darkened pen

waiting to hear the inner call signaling the end, i slowly fade
with it comes, ready or not, no attention will be displayed
the sorrows of the waning soul will all be signed and made
the price cheap, when i cease to exist it will be paid

now i have reached the end, the bed of my final sleep
on my knees, praying that forgiveness will be mine to keep
aware of devouring parasites that crawl and creep
with failure driven in with nails falling upon my sleep
