"Dead Is Me"

[raileus]

Crush this body and pour out its tears,
Choke me to release my fears,
Pierce this heart that it is not consumed by its years,
Slit my throat and cut off these ears.

That I not hear,
That I not see,
That which is dead,
That which is me.

Lead me into the sea,
let the fishes eat,
throw me into the fire for it is complete,
cast me to the wind that this may come to an end,
bury me in the earth, do as you wish for what it is worth.

That I not be,
nor stand,
or think,
for I have become death,
and that which is dead,
should be me.
