The Cold Hard Truth

We’re all destined to be ashes

And were built upon dust

We’re trapped inside a world

Driven by lust

We cry for love

But were given rejection

This entire world will accept

Are its tainted views of perfection

When in pain, being silent

Is what is expected

For if we cry out

We are considered defective

Disappointment waits

Behind every door

And when they all close

You’re alone once more

To thoughts that remind you

Of the failures of your past

And you begin to question

If your dice is pre-cast

And you’re destined to be

Alone and afraid

With no reason to

Stand up and be brave

Unable to believe

That you have something to give

And if it would be worth it

To try to live.
