Waiting to exhale

Everything is still, Life is holding its breath
I am waiting to exhale, Am I alive or dead
Everything is quiet, Or is it just me
Me and my mind, dead and finally free

Am I still here, My body and soul
Or have I broken the chains, To finally soar
To soar so high, Into that star lit night sky
To paint my blue and grey canvas with goodbye

I will seek no solace, I will ask for no mercy
I will not ask for nirvana, or kneel down and pray
I will not ask for my dreams and why not ever my way
Or question why, it happened this way

I will sing to you, a song of love and its withering
I will paint you my heart, its lost hopes and scars
I will raise you a toast, of sweat and tears
I will dance with you, to drudgery and pain

I will break away from your circle, of life and the living
I will be a ghost and not feel a thing
I will exhale all sorrow and hold no joy
I will breathe in silence and just be quiet
