Sick Reality

Death and darkness surround us all

Blood and pain follow us to the edge of existance

Not once have we ever been truly at peace

The darkness consumes us

The blood sprays and flows

The pain engulfs us

Death waits at our doors until the day we die

Most decide to turn a blind eye

Most are too ignorant to see

They will always be there

Even if we do not want them to be

Eventually we are all consumed

We will all bleed

We will all feel the pain

We will all see the darkness run free

We will all die at some point in time

It can never be stopped

It is our fate

It is the inevitable truth that swallows us all

We all search for an escape

We all hide inside our fantasies

We all duck into the deepest corners of our minds

We all try to remain oblivious to the outside world

It never works

At some point we all wake up

At some point we succumb to reality

At some point we all recognize the darkness and death

At some point we draw our first drop of blood

At some point we all feel our first sting of pain

Nothing lasts

It never has

It never will
