Overture Or Obituary

Overture Or Obituary

I'm facing the light

But fading to black

I'm offering peace

As I'm stabbed in the back

Yet I'm feeling able

My house is made of steel

With paper for doors

I've tried to hate you

But feel regret

I'm most uncertain

I've lost the bet

I'm waiting to watch it

I'm waiting to see

Is this my overture? Or obituary?

I'm holding the torch

But melting my fists

I'm first in the line

Yet last on the list

Yet I'm feeling able

My house is made of steel

With paper for doors

I've tried to hate you

But feel regret

I'm most uncertain

I've lost the bet

I'm waiting to watch it

I'm waiting to see

Is this my overture? Or obituary?

Or obituary!

I tried not to choke you (NO!)

But now you're dead (NO!)

I'm most uncertain (NO!)

Should I feel regret? (NO!)

I've tried to hate you

But feel regret

I'm most uncertain

I've lost the bet

I'm waiting to watch it

I'm waiting to see

Is this my overture? Or obituary?

I tried not to choke you!

Is this my overture? Or obituary?
