The Void

Is this the end? It's what I've asked for
 I brought this on myself this time
 Kryptonite scars up and down my body
 Wishing for hope, for redemption, for mercy
 Expecting everything and getting nothing
 I REACH OUT for a helping hand, but
 ALL I FEEL is the cold, lifeless air
 NOW I SEE that there's nothing there
 Buried beneath my misery, when I'm dead and gone remember me.
 I hold the keys to release my safety
 My compass pointed in the right direction
 I just wish the map I had an X for the end
 Not for the treasure that doesn't exist
 As the sun shines no longer
 And the wind stops caressing my shoulder
 I reflect on my expired youth
 As the rest of me decays with the roots
 I reach out with a helping hand, but
 All I feel is cold, lifeless air
 Now I see there's nothing there
 Buried beneath my misery
 The seasons change infinitely
 As I rot expecting divinity
 I REACH OUT for a helping hand, but
 ALL I FEEL is the cold lifeless air
 NOW I SEE that there's nothing there
 Buried beneath my misery, when I'm dead and gone remember me.
