Final Letter
To my dear Savannah these words I now write
As the sun slowly falls; turning twilight to night
You know why I write this final letter to you
And I know I’m a coward for what I’m ‘bout to do
I thought I could fight it and drive it away
I thought I was stronger but now I must pay
When you asked me last month I said I’d be fine
Sometimes these things happen just not all the time
I’ll just keep on drivin’ from here to Route 12
Just have to get used to my personal hell
All I see are the whites of that strangers eyes
All I hear is the silence as he quickly dies
And what scares me the most, you seem to hurt more
‘Cause I’s close to breaking; closer than before
You’ve always been stronger; you proved that last year
But this time is different; that’s what brings the fear
It hits me and burns me and shows on my face
Seems I’ve no other choice but escape from this place
So I sit at this table the moon as my light
I’ve trudged through the battle; I’ve raised a good fight
But the actions I’ve witnessed, this thing I have seen
Has ruled my awakeness, has conquered my dreams
So I reach for this barrel and the trigger below
I love you my darling. May god save my soul.
