For all those here who mourn for me
Over the pale body that you see
Take comfort that I felt no pain
But faded away like falling rain
For all those friends i leave behind
I'm still among you in heart and mind
Although my choice to you seems wrong
I had a reason, so please be strong
So many things that weakened me
A constant struggle just to be
Though the sunset of my life is gone
With every sunset comes a dawn
I left because i wished to saor
I left becuase i could take no more
For every anger that I felt
I despised the life that i was dealt
I'ver lived through trying many things
And now im gone, but still it stings
I made a choice i thought was right
To free my soul from endless night
Why keep it here in all this pain
Outside of me so much it can gain
So think not of my loss as a gaping hole
But a sweet release for I freed my soul...
