THE SUICIDE SONG
The Suicide SongBy Alex S. Gabor
Suicide, suicide
How could she have lied?
Suicide, suicide
Why couldn't have I died?
Oh ye mortals clamor for life
Dribbling on about pain and strife
Yes I tried it, more than once
Told me I was crazy, a self destructive dunce
But when my will is not aligned
And I know not what God wants divined
My life is shattered and completely entwined
Ruined by injustices committed by the blind
Ignorant fools, knaves of stench
Quietly rumoring from behind their legal bench
Pointing fingers encrusted with dirt
Demonic passions with the devil they flirt
What is life for but to live it free
And if injustice has enslaved thee
Then it is free will and your right to be
Or not that sets you apart from the enemy
Suicide, oh suicideYou become me again
Suicide, suicide
I don't know just when
You ask the gods to take you away
But they ignore you and still you pay
All efforts to right the wrongs of the world
Have failed so miserably it depresses the mind
No more lovers, drugging and booze
Reality is too harsh it is way too unkind
At least with drugs there was escape
At least with booze there was elate
At least with lovers there was someone close
But now its all too real, it's too much to hate
Hate myself and I die a little
Love myself and I set myself free with death
As I contemplate the days of my last breath
No place to turn, my stories all told
No one to my rescue who could be so bold
I'm already way too, too old
Dying so young would have my mother to scold
I search for assasins in every corner
But they hide from this truth mourner
I know the truth and it does not set me free
Only in death can my enemies be haunted
Till their dying days I will watch over them
And remember me they will from the accidents
Revenge, vindication and poetic justice
Crashing waves of comeuppance, undaunted
I tried to forgive them and to let go
I tried to let god and die another day
I tried to love and failed again
I beat my head till it became numb from pain
Now I am at the new bottom again
And I cannot go back to drugs and pain
Or find solace in the arms of another woman
Or a man
No, I must choose life or death
As I contemplate my last breath
For I have lived like no one else can
In this god forsaken ironic land
Turn off the televisions and don't read the news
There is war here and there and it gives you the blues
Where is paradise but in our minds
When the last breath is taken, my life rewinds
Flashing before me, every single image
Of love and hate, good and bad, right and wrong
The crowds of cheering war mongers songs
I left my baggage and lost all knowledge
And in my death, I can no longer be attacked
But I can see and watch from a distance
How my enemies have been tracked
And how they must suffer at what they have wracked
Upon my faith, my beliefs and dreams
When I die, no one will be there for my screams
I once thought it would be an assasins bullet
But now I know it was only my own trigger
That sent me away to a distant place
Where I could end my plight with this human race
That is rushing toward nowhere safe
That ruins every desperate strafe
Don't do it, don't do it they all cried
That lonely night I wrote while I died
Oh suicide, sweet suicide
My last final grace
The only decision they could not take from me
In my final resting place
The liars they killed me when I was high
Now I am dead while I sleep on the nigh
Poison, a gun, a knife to the throat?
Perhaps a wire dangling above the moat
What is the best way to meet you?
Sweet suicide, oh suicide, sweet suicide.
The ultimate rightness is to prove everyone wrong
The ultimate politeness is to make nothing of ones self
The ultimate wrongness is to go on living
When you know there is really nothing left
To live for...
No one left behind, its all an illusion
Oh sweet suicide, oh I should have died
Oh sweet suicide, I could not stop if I cried
And life's such a bitch, and then you are born again.
The ultimate trick of this universe
But still, dying was better than bankrupty, jail, drugs, sex, booze, religion and politics.
See you all next life time.
