   *** Lyrics ***

  AS I DIE!

  Stare, as eyes uphold me
  And wait, to see right through
  And curse me, the love has crippled you

  shadows aren't the night
  forgive me as i die

  sin, the last diversion
  my face will be untouched
  dismiss now the anger of a fool

  shadows aren't the night
  forgive me as i die

  taking a chance and take what you can
  my soul it has no price
  total release is outta harms way
  until i can decide
  you, punish me
  can't you see i'm not real
  tears are flowing freely
  passing by as i die.....
