It is true,
That fear wants you to live.
But isn’t it obvious,
That rage needs to die?
You don’t have to feel near death,
To be grateful you have breath.

I know,
You’ve ignored the words of Jeremiah,
For a very long time.
But I will give you,
One final warning.
Your under-world curiosity,
Will only numb your heart.
And you can’t retreat,
When the battle is done.
