Death and the Maiden

Hold me, don't take me away
We on the edge, only one step away
Hold me, don't take me away
We on the edge, only one step away

Death of the innocence, looking into the abyss
Leave me alone, I must exist
Life is a pleasure and it's not to miss
Touched by your fingerprints
Living in fear? Who does it benefit?
Can I be immortal?
No avoiding this void it's a portal
Bleak fate can't beat fate
But you might end up with a clean slate
Only my heart beat could defeat me
But here you are, waiting to greet me
Calling but who's really hearin' ya?
Displaced, like refugees fleeing from Syria
No one's inferior only delusion could turn us imperial
Evil is killing you, catch it on video
Physical material, disappearing into the ethereal
As time pass and it's beautiful
Earth quakes and the earth shakes
Didn't have control in the first place
Drive me away from my birthplace
Feed me your potion, it's the worst taste
Show up in the shadow's with a cursed face
Please spare my from despair
But you tell me to beware but it's got to be fair cuz I ought to be here
But death is a brutal cry, the drought when the well runs dry
The answers we don't find, when we choose to ask why

Take my hand, your not my enemy
Be brave cuz you better be
I'm your friend you see
On the other side rest eternally
And I wake up feeling faithful
Surrounded by people, I'm grateful
Always thought that you were so hateful
But those thoughts became so painful
You can have me today
We can do this dance all the way
As I disappear into the sunset and become another ray
And I'm living on your edge
And I balance on the fray
And you chase me with your karma
So I vanish after the drama

Hold me, don't take me away
We on the edge, only one step away
Hold me, don't take me away
We on the edge, only one step away
Hold me, don't take me away
We on the edge, only one step away
Hold me, don't take me away
We on the edge, only one step away
