Do you really want to die alone?
As a complete unknown?
With all of this fire still raging inside of your soul?
Is that how you want to go?
Don’t you want to see where your light will take you before you get too old?
Do you really want to die all alone,
Never finding a home?
As your name fades away
To the sands of time
Will a few people remember your shine?
Is that really how you want to go out,
As a complete unknown?
You would die
Living a life where you never tried?
When you go to the grave,
Will you have blazed your trail?
Will you have failed?
Will you have lived?
Will you have trusted someone with your bones?
Or will you die
As a complete unknown?
Of all the things you could be
And you are okay with being nothing?
Rolling,
Like a stone,
A complete unknown.
Better to have loved and lost,
Then to stay home all alone,
Night after night;
Scared of the fight;
Afraid of the light;
With your screen’s illuminating your eyes.
Will you get out of the maze
Before you die?
Or will you pass away
Without living one goddamn day?
All of this potential brewing inside of you
Will it get washed to the sea
Or will you break your chains
And be free?
Will you free yourself
From yourself
Before you die alone
As a complete unknown?
