If I were to die
what exactly would I leave?
I have no love
I have no life
Who, for me, would grieve?

I'm growing so old
I've lost all my youth
I'm going blind
I cannot see
I cannot find the truth.

I'm wasting away
I'm going to die
I'm shattered
And bleeding
And I won't even cry.

My walls are so high
I have built them well
I'm safe in here
They can't get in
But from the wall I fell.

It keeps me safe
This fortress of stone
But they can't come in
I can't go out
And so I am alone.

So if I were to die
What would I leave behind?
I have got
Nothing to lose
So I've made up my mind.
