when you wake up & see me in the wave
come not to my grave
the world was never meant to be fair/ only taught me to be brave
when you reverse the arms of clock on the church wall
one after another do not bawl or run
like gun,
i was shunned
do not think about what you could've done
just tell the clothes in my closet that i am gone
& the world didn't let me predict the future
please bother not to know the cause
for i danced pains out for eons in pas
yet the tears couldn't pause
blame not yourself
because the world has no favorite person on its shelf
when you start picking my pieces
Seal up those grieves behind bars deep in my flesh
do not tear up
for the world has always been a prison
when you get down on your knees before the Lord
do not ask for forgiveness on my behalf
rather ask the Lord to have mercy on his world
or end it,
before everyone turns into ogre
if tomorrow starts with me,
live on & leave footprints on the top
where ladders couldn't take me
do not fall into despair
if tomorrow starts with me
you'll soon forget that i'm gone/ for i'll be an absentee
& you'll
forget my name before darkness even hate the ground.
