The Fall

Agnostic now becoming fast, discard my teachings of the past

The waters dark and very deep, could this be my final sleep

What tales to tell, what truth to hold, for some this be their pot of gold

Released from toil, trial and pain, for me right now, ne'er live again

Should this I do, or should I not, would all my cares be forgot

This is my chance, not pass it by, this is my decision, do or die

Should I try to live once more, or death at present, close the door

The fence I'm on, which way to leap, to fight or plunge into the deep

To plunge the depths, is what I choose, but either way I'm born to lose

I'm born to lose, each way I turn, but still I choose, not life to spurn
