I wrote this based on Riddick's words from "The Chronicles of Riddick"
I'm becoming old and I've lost my will
My will to live
Decided to ignore it for a bit
But then it all comes to catch up with me in the end
Because you keep what you kill
This guilt won't come to pass
And now I realize that because of what I did or didn't
I'm going to have to live with it
Now I'm becoming old and I've lost my will
And this guilt won't come to pass
Because you keep what you kill
Differences set all but us apart
Someone carried the other half of my heart
Then the day my will disappeared
Didn't realize that it was going to be forever

Today I'm sitting on my windowsill
I don't want to think about my will
Trying not to think about my will
Because my will is gone
I'm becoming old and I've lost my will
You keep what you kill
I'm becoming old and I've lost my will
I'm hoping that one day he'll find out
That you keep what you kill
He'll ignore it for a bit
But it all comes to catch up with him in the end
Because you keep what you kill
You can't ignore your will
Because you keep what you kill
