this is not the end complete Even as the end’s complete Finding strength with one’s defeat Living in an endless score Killing me with battled sores I’m the one that’s sent to kill Feeling all destructive will Bring forth one dead sole decay The end’s complete’s the final day When the time has come to bare Dying young fall to despair To bring forth one dead sole decay The end’s complete’s the final day ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------
