Fade to Black

To remain in this world I must fight to survive

I do all I can and spend all my energy trying to stay alive

It gets harder to breathe as my lungs slowly tire

It feels as if my life is balancing on a high wire

One wrong move and that’s the end for me

As my energy drains my eye sight fails and it gets harder to see

Like a movie clip I start to fade to black surrounded by a cloud of smoke

My lungs constrict and I slowly die as I start to choke

I close my eyes and except what’s coming as I lay my head back

That’s it it’s done theirs no more life as I fade to black
