I'd rather
Feel the pain of a thousand knives
Or walk this cruel earth in endless time
I'd rather
Know the fires of hell
Or live life entrapped in a solitary cell
I'd rather
Never to embrace another's touch
Especially the want of temptation's lust
I'd rather
Be unaware, lose my mind
Or be incarcerated for a vicious crime
I'd rather
Never to love again
Or for the world to end
I'd rather
Endure all this pain
Then to be concious of your existance again
