Greetings to my unwelcomed life
And the insanity it brings
To my inescapable mind
And unrelenting misery
Listen for the rain
To shut out the bane
Of this headache
And I can't think straight
Inject a dose of stillness
You can't see inside my head
Nevertheless, I need a witness
Everyday is yesterday's tomorrow
But will change ever come?
Help me stop this madness
Before I decide I'm done
Trying to hold on
To what you said long ago
Laying on my bed
And I'm dying slow
When will the world show mercy?
My body is tired
I'm through with this journey
Talk to someone
I'll choose the gurney
I don't want to believe in anything
My knees are bruised and scraped
From this burden
I cannot convey
When I start to fall
Don't catch me at all
I cry wasteful tears
That should be used on someone worthy
In this condition
There are no answers
I just stay quiet
As it begins to fester
All that was new is obsolete
So I toss it out
Into the midnight streets
Your name is always unavailable
Certain people are acceptable
You made yourself insatiable
I shouldn't be in this dejected world
Everywhere I turn
Someone is watching me with a snarl
Can my heart stop now?
My words have fallen into acid
And I have fallen down
Love is unknown
I once had the crown of my life
Until I've been dethroned
Happiness was an ephemeral
I battled hard to retain my grace
And through it all
You stayed with me
You should have let me decay
Rewrite my obituary
It was all false anyway
Every detail was unnecessary
So long to your grudge
That you couldn't let go of
Nobody ever does
I hope tomorrow never comes
