~~I Will Live Longer~~

I will live long

Enough to see

The world burn.

I will live long

Enough to see

Your heart fail.

I will live long

Enough to hear

Your terrified scream.

 

I don't want to live long enough

To see this world change.

I don't want to live

Long enough to know

It will always

Be different.

 

I don't want to say

Goodbye, and stand by your grave.

I don't want to go

On without the closure

Of hearing you

Say my name.

 

I don't want to

Lose the one I've fought for.

I don't want to

Lose the one I've died for.

I don't want to lose you.

 

I will live longer

Than I want to.

I won't let myself give in.

I'll want to die,

But that's beside the point:

I won't let my other side win.

 

I will stay

Until the end of the world.

I will stay

Until it has all burned away....
