The Spirit Seed

In just one breath

Your dreams will fade

A moment in time

For fear to embrace

The future... is my enemy

Long days.... and endless nights

Pain awakes my sleep

And ends in a silent barrage of calm

Look at me though jaded eyes

Forever see the mask I wear

Never feel pity for me

It's the way my life lives

Beaten by the only life I know

Forced upon the spirit seed

I only wish I had the strength

To say goodbye

At what time did you turn your back?

I pay for this with every breath

And all you do is preach through man

Of how merciful you can be

Then you shall not fail

For every time you close your eyes

I'll be there to greet you
