Finality and genesis have little space to co-exist With existential pillars slowly falling down and crumbling To live and to let die and forget leaves me with this paradox Everything I know's been ripped apart without consent from me This tome is coming to a close This is the end of everything These issues seem to conjure up And I am rendered helpless Now the chips are stacked against me, and Departing is my only way out I've been whittled down to the point that Even the scraps just turn to dust I don't know what to believe; Is it my fault? I don't want to leave This tome is coming to a close This is the end of everything I'll find closure In the land of vacancy My exposure Undermined my golden dreams I changed it all for this Just to be thrown away for good Don't tell me I'll be missed; I know you never would You'll desecrate my fading name, and Take my place; put me to shame I was nothing; I'm still nothing Better places don't exist
