A Second Chance In Hell

T'was a sober sunday morning
When I finally realized
I don't need to kill myslef
Because of others I despise
I don't need to surround my heart
In a crippling endless hole
I can go up, not down, this morning
My mind finally unfolds
I don't need to hate my life
I don't need to cry
I certainly dont need to die
But this change has not a reason why
I don't know what change has come
I've gained a new life, overnight
I don't know why I feel
Satisfaction, without a fight
All the lessons I was tought
All the words you said
Everything is clear to me
I'm better living, now, then dead
All the subtle lies you told
Have finally flown away
And all the hate that shrouded me
Has been evicted, in dismay
But looking down I know now
It's Ironic how I feel
The end displays the turths of life
But now these truths do not appeal
A mind still slept within the night
And awoke a mind anew
I had gained a second chance
But wasted seconds, too
Why did my second chance come now
A mind opened, just too late
A mind here served and fed at last
On my mind's half empty plate
The wearyness and half closed eyes
Of my second chance's bliss
If only one night sooner
I woulnd't have slit my wrist
I wouldn't have thought that dreadful thought
That emptied out my life
I wouldn't have killed myself
If I only learned this last night
But selfish minds gain no remorse
One more life, now becomes none
I chose this life, I chose this death
Whats done, my friend, is done
