Decay

Dank, dark, always dark
Sitting in my cave
I never pray
I'm sitting all alone
Hiding in my home
I'm prey
Listen to the silence
My last breathe
Fades
Never saw it come
Felt nothing at all
No pain
Comfort in the soft earth
Wraps me in its arms
No pain
Seeing through the silence
Hear your voice
Now say
"He lived out his life
In his own way"
Never cry in sorrow
Not for me
This day
I lived out my life
I hid away
Don't pray
Never sought the halo
Now all I do

Decay
