A planned way of life
the future you'd have seen
gone in an instant
to awake from your dream

Heavy forces draw you closer to the ground
live in fear echoing endless sound

chosen your number has been drawn
live once you're dead you're gone

tortured by your mind
it leads your thoughts astray
days flash by
no memories of yesterday
time runs short 
yet still you feel no pain
will you be prepared to make your final stand

to part the clouds of darkness
and let the sunlight through
seems to be the only way
but not such an easy

many have gone before you
and many still will follow
you are but a small tear
in the cry of sorrow

torment of my mind and soul
release the pain within
simply close my eyes and
I let the nightmares end
