Put down
Broken
Abandoned
Left to drown
I've been shattered
Stabbed
Left to bleed
Never to be found
I crawled
I bled
Through all the tears I've shed
I still carried on
I limped
Fell down again and again
I thought it was all in vain
But I still got up
Used
Abused
Drained of every ounce of life
On the brink of death
But not soon enough
Is when I've found light
I'm this world
I just don't belong
I never will
Ever since that first moment
Everything went wrong
Suck it up and go
Where and why ?
I still don't know
I will go forward
Until the day I die
We're born to bleed
Wether we fail or succeed
Wether we can endure it all
Wether we rise or fall
We're just thrown into this world
But it's never enough
It's not enough to live
You have to thrive
It's not enough to work
You need to have drive
It's not enough to feel
You must also show
It's not enough to live
You have to push forward
But do it ever so slow
If you burn out fast
You'll only find that
Nothing's ment to last
But that's not enough for me
I'll bleed and die
Little by little
I'll carry on
Until I'm old and brittle
And even then
I'll keep on dying everslowly
Until I learn what living truly is
For I have only felt it
In the jaws of death
Boiled by the thrill of life
When I could feel it's icy breath
Delaying every time
The moment of its bite
The jaws just open wide
Knowing there won't be a fight
Once I find the true meaning of life
I'll know one thing for certain
Death is but a new chapter
Perhaps another plane
Who are we to know
Unless we're at the gate
Will the gates burn away
Or show us the light
Did we journey through day
Or wander through the night
All these questions keep me awake
Time is always running out
And everything I know is at stake
