Not to be lost, I pay the cost, pain slain, guilt's stain
Numb, dumb, soon to succumb
taking a toll, an escaping soul, through a gaping hole
on the ledge, tipping over the edge.... of woulds, giving up all coulds
A tortoise, … escort us, one foot in front of another,
Divorce us, from life, a wife, some other, even a brother
my time flown, thrown like a stone, I have no mother
Now protected, with the past infected, I've resurrected
Never to be the same, back to where I came, only me to blame,
given up on fame, but not shame
At night I sigh, but with dry eye, banished I'll die
