I stand in the edge of a dual abyss 

Wondering to which do I turn.

On either side I can tell something is amiss.

Yet I yearn to plunge in, no I burn.

One leads to madness, deep and dark.

Filled with agony, despair, and discordant thought.

It beckons me sweetly, with it’s sweet song.

It knows what to tell me, what I want all along.

Down the other flows sanity, on such a narrow path.

It’s not very pleasing to the eye.

Filled with rough patches, course words, and I must work till I die.

Down which should I plunge, which way is best?

I’m on the knifes edge, I’ve been put to the test.

Bliss of madness, or hardheaded sanity.

Which will I take, when both sing to me?
