Life is the death of kings From baby knees to angel wings A yawn of time, wishes met, Just enough to get in debt. Needs immense and expectations tall, We all together fear the fall. - So kiss my palm and smudge your tear Take my hand; the time is near. Forget rational and embrace truth Sever ties and abandon youth. Stars to pocket and emptiness enthrall We all together fear the fall. - You remember life; I ponder death, Why is it that you can catch your breath? Bleeding ice and cold that cuts I hear you giggle from beneath glass that juts. My mouth forms words, my screams are raw; We all together fear the fall. - Regret cuts you deep, and you reach for my hand Through water that bites; do you understand? My skin is cold, so cold, swaddled in frost, You seek a pulse, but mine is long lost. Your tears come then, a deafening bawl, We all together fear the fall.
