The Day I Realized I was not Immortal...

The Day I Realized I was not Immortal like I had Previously Thought

draw your own conclusions and then rip them up and throw them away
they are just as useless as I tend to be from day to repetitive day
call it intuition or just blind belief
but I like to call it my sigh of relief

if i was made for this way of living
i would have been conceived in a coffin
to these nights that are unforgiving
when the only thing keeping me alive is thinking of what might have been

looking inward instead of outward only makes me realize i\'m just a slave
but what was it that just sank into me like gravity sinking me into this grave
a hymn, a prayer, a suicidal thought
from a heart that can\'t be sold or bought?

if i was made for this way of dying
i would have never been born at all
to these days I keep on denying
where a dream of breathing and actually living is all that i can recall.
