Analysis of Don't let me perish
Kevin Yeits 1985 (Almaty)
Don't punish me for every moment
For every day that I'm alive
Whole my life's like filthy comment -
I'm a prisoner in social gap.
Don't kill me for my single feelings,
For my obsession be in love.
This freaky world my handmade Kingdom
Sometimes so bright, sometimes so tough.
I don't return, you can remember
And you can see my tears in sky,
My last explosion as was never,
My magic death and witchcraft cry.
