Eulogy - Conveyer

I made my choice a long time ago

My purpose set in stone

Pardoned and cleared, no longer adhering to the grave

Cut off from the atrocities I’ve made

To separate myself from a world to which I can’t relate

Souls segregated from Your sustainment

We all deserve to die alone

Free me from the spirit of malignancy, from the big nothing

The human condition that I know

With the clock closing out on existence, my downfall will be my resistance

We all deserve to die, but I don’t want to fade away

Living behind this mask I’ve made has only left me bound in chains

Will You please carry me across the void?

Can You fill this hole inside my heart?

This is a dead-end crossing without Your voice

I’ve heard Your calling and I’ve made my own choice

The gaping nothing has my soul in a vice

Can You take this death from me and then replace it with life?

There’s nothing good here left for me on this earth

But a six-by-three, six feet down in the dirt

The longer I’m here, the light fades away

And as far as I am concerned, the worms can eat today

End my life, I’ll give up the ghost

No longer bound to the fire

Send me home, I don’t want to live here anymore

Where we live apart from Love, where we think that God is not enough

You can leave flowers on my grave knowing that I never wanted to stay
