Looking down upon others Seeing weakness in everyone The content population Remains a burden on the world Elevate thyself above the mediocrity of mankind Don’t succumb to temptation Don’t submit to fatigue Don’t be possessed by destructive pride Be the ideal self All I see are your glaring flaws Your burdens so evident So much weakness incarnate Weighing down on your life Why this mission I sought Dying via the burden I wish I saw Dead heart, dead soul but still I see The life I squandered through the years The time I spent in vain Domination of my life is the key to survive Mission of my remaining life

Book End 04:25
Here I am now at the end of life How did I end up here? Through a lifetime of strife Stood on my two feet, pushed everyone away Now I tried suicide, and let my existence decay A fitting end to my miserable tale, as my rotting face turns pale Tripping across the veil, or marching to my own hell An artist needs to finish his work, even if he remains in the dark At least I made my own mark, the tragic end to this narrative arc If I end up alone, as everyone I loved rests together Then I should go out on my own, my veins I should sever Inflict my own punishment, the price of selfishness Watching her love someone else, while my heart and soul deserve emptiness
