Gazing at the valley below
Watching as the storm brings snow
In the mountains clear air
With no thoughts or care
Foolish... inevitably I shall die
Right here among the clouds I'll fly
Shall I take the plunge off the precipice
Or wait for the inevitable...deaths kiss
Lost soul within
Demons awaiting-fear-sin
Impossible darkness is now found
Raggedly twisting
Fate resisting
Moving toward that dazzling light
New life will begin this night
In deaths repose no pain I feel
Only love felt so pure and real
