When you try your best but you don't succeed
When your best efforts fall to your knees
When you thought you could make it so you
Could please yourself

In the turn of events, you did please yourself
Whilst everything else around you tumbled
While everything around you
Crumbled to ashes

As ashes,
We fall down
Hoping something will catch us
But still, we sit here
Writing in third person
Cause no one's truly certain
Of what actually happened

We were too busy succeeding in our own accomplishments
To see the problem that has been in front of us all along
