Somewhere in space lies undeniable truth,
An answer to all of the burning questions,
Like how the world really is out to get you,
And true love was mankind’s misconception.
Everybody dies, always have, always will,
It’s not a matter of when it’s all about why,
My music is psychiatric proof that I can kill,
And a lack of faith has sentenced me to die.
The fire burns constantly inside my head,
If I could try again, I don’t know what to do,
Everything I have truly loved is now dead,
And you come to me demanding the truth.
Sifting through the ashes for the memories,
That are too painful to ever want to relive,
I’ve been left here to rot without a disease,
I have committed no crime for you to forgive.
Somewhere in space is the scientific proof,
To every question you’ve ever wondered,
But the earth has this way of hiding truth,
For many to theorize but none to discover.
A world of evidence won’t clear my name,
Nor will it bring my loved ones back to me,
As long as I live, I’ll hang my head in shame,
For a crime that only I know I’m not guilty.
Even those I’ve loved have betrayed me now,
This is a lopsided battle to fight on my own,
They know facts, but they’re overshadowed,
By mistakes I have made a long, long time ago.
This world sees me as a heartless monster,
I cry myself to sleep every night and worry,
If this is my life and all I have to live for,
Then I don’t need to live to tell my story.
Years of fighting nixed by minutes of lies,
Could it possibly help them sleep at night?
They don’t know their words sent me to die,
Can they even differentiate wrong and right?
An innocent man being burned at the stake,
For not admitting to a crime I didn’t commit,
Who knew hearsay could determine my fate?
All I love is forever gone, there’s no fixing it.
Looking around I can see them sigh in regret,
The truths they have established are all gone,
They know an innocent man is sent to death,
But pride alone cannot admit they were wrong.
Somewhere in space holds a key to freedom,
I feel my heartbeat gradually slipping away,
And as my eyes begin to close I will become,
Finally forgiven, finally free, finally safe.
