Abandoned by Light - Death, the Elixir of Life

Lying on the cold floor
In the abyss of nothing
The living clipped my wings
Whilst the dead looked on and laughed

Silent is the landscape
Devoid of the human plague
Cold is my current life
Cold like the grave

My death is in your eyes
Looking out at me
Cold, unforgiving, forever
Like a virus in my heart
Draining all of my life
I am the husk the angels leave behind

Now is the end
Cut out the cancer from the world
Drink the poison from the cup
It's an elixir, we all must drain
Death embraces with cold arms
Suicide leads the way, noose in hand

Everyone needs to kill themselves
Life is no excuse
Take this blade I offer you
Free yourself from the misery
The misery, the cruel God has thrust on you
Do it, and watch the shackles, break down around you

Piece by piece, they broke you
No-one to pick up your shards
Like tears your blood cascades
Pooling at your feet
What more is there to live for?
When everything that you see breaks

Take me by the hand
And the open wrist
Death is written in red
A score that your misery writes
Now that you can see it, clear in the night
Were all better off dead
