My song for Kurt Cobain, whom I love.

lyrics

The Ragged End of Nowhere

Fall
into sorrow
Believe in
your own lies
Betray
all you've become
And all you love
will pay the price
Pay the price
Bathe in angelic light
Quench your barren soul
A tattered and ragged end
begins to unfold

Cease.
Your will to live
falters
in an empty life
Surrender
all you are
And all you love
will pay the price
Pay the price
Caress the velvet hand,
black as your faithless heart
The boundless and empty end
A story torn apart

Alter
immortality
Traitor
to your own eyes
Destroy all you could be
and all you love
will pay the price
Pay the price
A final
vast expanse
You called it
a night
At the ragged end of nowhere
you gave up the fight

At the ragged end of nowhere
you faded out of sight...
