Stunner coda I wish to own
Singing lullabies, quivering,
so we too may find heaven in
this night's blue chemical veil
Clichéd major chords, celestial ichor
Struggling through upstrokes
with my less dominant hand
doing it all for the music and this life
oh, Seichō, Wataru, down-strokes were heavier
minor chords were stronger
the slow cadence of sadness in the ballad
cuts through the insomnia better
to live is to commit to today's boundaries
to die is to seek beyond known mysteries
i willfully choose to hang with the spirits
who wanted more than all of this...
