The Green Mile

I've been down just for a while
Close my eyes and I am far away
So far away from myself
Take a breath and realize
I'm too weak and hiding far away
Far away behind my mask

I forsaken?
I a coward?
I a laughter?
All I ever wanted is no more pain
Just a little more brave
Oh, blame, let me be the one...

Have you ever known what it's like to be?
To bury all mistakes and prejudices

And when I exceed the line
I admit I've lost control
No amnesty for daunting and frightening you again

Reprieve me before I'm adjudged
And save me before I fall
I know I'm lost
Don't judge me by my masquerade

Have you ever known what it's like to be?
To bury all mistakes and [bad word] you

In this time of need you're gone
It can't rain all the time
I'll have to stay
I'll have to die
That I am sure

I have no illusions of immortality
I will await my death
Long before death finds me

I can't recall anything from yester-night
Just a broken bottle right beside my empty bed
My forsaken life is just a broken hell
Insanity is hard to tell

And when I exceed the line
I admit I've lost control
No amnesty for daunting and frightening you once again

We each owe a death
There are no exceptions
But sometimes the green mile seems so long
