The beams of my soul
Just fallen to the ground
My eyes staring blind
From under a mound
The hell of the day
Will slowly fade away
And there’ll stay a reason
For new goodbyes to say
And to speak of those words
That my heart to me spoke
Once to hiss snaky jokes
Once a wise fool to poke
In my mind’s truest nook
’Tis like a cruel epitaph
To make someone cry
And to make others laugh
My cup forever broken
My scars shall never heal
Decay took my hands
Yet happy I do feel
For cool is the earth
That sleeps its dizzy death
And friendly are the worms
That take my lonely breath
