Needle of death
When sadness fills your heart
And sorrow hides the longing to be free.
When things go wrong each day
You fix your mind to escape your misery
Your troubled young life had made you turn
To the needle of death.
How strange your happy words
Have ceased to bring a smile from everyone
How tears have filled the eyes
Of friends you once had walked among.
One grain of pure white snow
Dissolved in blood spread quickly to your brain
In peace your mind withdraws
Yet death so near your soul can feel no pain.
Your mother stands a-crying
While to the earth your body’s slowly cast
Your father stands in silence
Caressing every young dream of the past.
Through ages man’s desires
To free his mind, to release his very soul
Have proved to all who live
That death itself is freedom for evermore.
