Cheated death for 200 years,
I had built this time machine
Even then it was a mean hassle
A prison to cage the free
But couldn’t let go, I’m not one to die
Bring on a war
I’m would fight to survive
So I thought about for a bit
And hid when death called
Running away
Off a cliff
Hoping to cushion my fall
And it was there that I saw two massive Golden doors
Wide open,
Still too far.
Running and running till I’m out of breath
I had found a way to cheat this death
I pulled through, pulled through at last
And there I was
An inch away
Forever had I dreamed this day
Stepped inside
Stepped away
Some feeling strange had settled in
I called, I screeched
For the man in the cloak
To pull me away
From the city of life
Time for a shift
Though I had some really nice times
Looked around one last time
My face bright with a studded smile
As it was then that I knew
I had been what a fool
Who truly ever dies?
If they have memories have been left behind
The golden doors weren’t an immortal realm
They were the path to remind me of this, once again.
