I Hope You Die

In the belly of the cloud

I was released

You were released

Was it deafeningly loud?

Or was it peace?

Sweet peace

All the streets

All filled with sound

Because it's right

It's for the best

Still I sense

Their judgment now

As we ask for rest

Just rest

I can't sleep until I see you sleeping

Curse my mind and its all-seeing eye

Watch the rise

And wonder if you're breathing

Against your will

You are alive

I don't recognize the world

That you have made

That we have made

Still you fool yourself to ask

If you had stayed

If we had stayed

At the ringing of a bell

Or at the falling of a tree

If you think of it at all

Remember me

Just me

I can't breathe until I see you waking

Watching as the scars fall from your eyes

Into a world that you may not remember

I hope you die

I hope you die

I hope you die

I hope you die
