The cusp of life
Is before me
The cusp of life
So terrifying
And resolute
I have never felt this before
Never felt this kind of pain.
Only in my dreams
And nightmares
The stinging inside my body
And the warmth inside my mind
Through fire and brimstone we have fought
Through blade and bullet
Through the test of time
We shall live
And I shall not
But something tells me
I do not want to
Something tells me
I never wanted to
Something warns me
The end of days
Of my days
Is near
And I see the light
No more pain
No more suffering
I have done
All I have been needed
To do
The end of my days is here
And I leave the world
A smile on my face
And a warmth in my heart
The end of my days is here
While mankind's days
Are just beginning again
