    Magnetize my Eyes

    Drawn closer, can't run, can't turn.
    I need to find out, need to learn.
    Speak louder, you're talking too low,
    No come back, I came closer, but don't go!
    I'm running, stop running, suddenly,
    my nerves are gunning, suddenly,
    Knees shake, joints quake,
    Earth shattered, mind, body, spirit,
    Battered.
    All i want is me, to know me,
    know more than a mirror,
    more than a skin tone,
    I need to make this journey,
    And do it all alone.
    I've got 50 yard radius,
    In front of my battle lines,
    50 yard radius,
    every inch, land mines,
    Try to advance, the trenches are gassed,
    Your dead crawl back, but already, the hand of death has passed.
    I don't want to cause it, hurt and pain,
    But then don't try to rush me, for personal gain.
    Lies, Labels, Liqour,
    The only things filling me,
    I want to know why,
    nobody telling me.
    I guess it's time to die.

    Very nice.

    I thought I knew the meaning of it, but you lost me with the last line.

    It's a sort of question without a question mark I guess, in the sense of, "Are you dead if you're not living?"
