Upon This Day

It's been weighing on my mind

Think about it all the time

And I know that I can’t stay for much longer

I've been planning my escape

Last resorts and fail-safes

And the things I leave behind are forever

My time will soon be over

They won't tear my heart from my chest

Leave nothing behind but the flesh

When they lay me to rest

Is there any saving grace?

Just how will I leave this place?

There are those contеnt to crawl

For any dignity at all

But I’ve got a better way

No morе time for suffering now

Leave this all behind

Thorn in my side

Beat me into submission

I won't participate

I will not wear a mask for you

I will not play this game

I will leave this behind

Only taking what's mine

There will be no regrets

On the day that lay me to rest
