A few dusty thoughts on an all black night
Cigarettes lit up, shining so bright
They said they all want to grow wings and fly
But I just want to die so go fly, fly
Let me fall like these embers, one by one
Dissipating myself until I'm gone
No one to smoke me so it will take time
Breathed in fumes and thrown off, cannot chime
Too listless for a noose so I just wait
And pin my hopes on being found by Fate
But I find that he clings to Life's breast
Should I catch her to fulfill my request?
I remember loathing her because she
Is a pretty woman that promised me
Then I saw her break other promises
I'll ask her : Do you know what honest is?
I go to her house to find an open door
I sneak in to find her clothes on the floor
A white coat well-wadded with forlorn days
Close to a perilous bed where she lays
And her scent: the blood of her dead beings
I peek through the door to see her bathing
In her lovelorns' tears, but what is true:
Life is a whore but beautiful and who
Sees her whoredom loathes her beauty
What would I do now? Isn't Death a duty?
The more I think the more I blind my eye
Yet I'm more prone to lose sight if I fly, fly
Then wind took the pile of ashes away
And dispelled my cloth of smoke, no more grey
No cigarettes or thoughts left to char
And now white, the hairs of Forever are
He joined me, smoked and dusted off some thoughts
