Drenched in Red

MC Radical · 05-23-2005, 03:45 PM

When games aren’t worth their winning prize,
We people seek to find an exit.
We seek and search, we do and try,
To find a better way of transit.
We seek to find a better path
Across a river drenched in red.
Those who stay and suffer we brand with power,
But let that bridge be crossed – a coward.

MEMO: Is it said that those who commit suicide are cowards,
They are simply taking an easy way out. But we let not judge the
ones that “stay behind” and endure the punishment and suffering
not realizing the cowardice within them.

Considering I've read it all, I'm still getting two different meanings from this part. You're saying across the river is the end-suicide (giving up) or simply what you say-a better path, not meaning putting a cease on one's life? I think it means the second, but who knows. I have something to say about what is in italics, but I don't know, its kind of irrelevant.

-Much Love

By these lines I mean a better way to die. A river drenched in red means death in this sentence.
