Getting away,
Away from this world
Away from this pain,
Only one way out.
Through the most simplest way,
And no one had to know.
Just his secret,
Just his life,
Just his lie.
Others don't know,
They don't understand
Not like him,
He could explain a lot,
But not this.
He was not weak,
But he had given up.
He knew there was no out
Only in,
Further
And further,
'Till there was no more.
Until he reached the bottom,
He could look up
And pretend:
Pretend it was okay,
Pretend it was not killing him,
Pretend it was not that bad.
He could imagine:
Imagine it was getting better,
Imagine life was good,
Imagine he could get out.
But at the end of the day
He just got lower
And lower,
Until one day,
He reached the bottom.
Then truly there was no more chance.
He would know
It was over,
His life would not be worth his pain,
Still,
He would live
Until that day.
