I Choose Death
Like a phoenix rising from ash
Like blood flowing from a gash
Only death can bring renewal
Only pain can bring withdrawal
Suffer the fool who would choose
Barren brown earth over the sky’s blues
Because of a fear to take flight
Never will he see day’s first light
Courage to face the elements
Will to piece back the fragments
Of a spirit shattered by sorrow
So that you may bravely face tomorrow
