(I Don't Need It) Anymore

By darkness falls

So this is life on the other side
Lost and all alone, forsaken
Nobody to care, No one will cry when I'm gone
It's darker now with every breath taken

If I could roll back time
There's many things I'd change
But that only happens in faery tales
I've only got myself to blame

I'm broken, can't be put together again
Love long gone and fade to grey
Like all the colors in this life
Colored in shades of anger and pain

Lost and all alone, am I lifted to heavens light?
Or endlessly falling through an icy hell
Likely consciousness just fades
Either way the ferryman doesn't tell

And it's ironic to feel that as I contemplate
This decision to bring it all to an end
It's the most alive I've felt in so long
Not knowing what's around that final bend

So take my heart, what's left to take
I don't need it anymore....
And take my life, what's left to take
I don't need it anymore....
