Too Late
Its just too late
Looks like destiny’s decided by fate
Where nothing ever goes by chance
Life is just a crazy dance
We live by blood, sweat and tears
And sacrifices drowned in beers
Its the alcoholics and depression reign
No one left is even slightly sane
And all we care about is money
And living in a world that’s sunny
And not darkened by the clouds of day
Or monochrome, and shades of grey.
We’re all broken, you and i
And yet our empty hearts still try to fly
Played and toyed with by the world
And then, like broken toys are hurled
Down the drain after we're done
And we discriminate and shun
The ones we deem as “not enough”
Daring each other to call the bluff
And break through the wall of lies
To face the truth and cut all ties
Of love and happiness, of hope
All pushed down the drain like suds of soap
This world is full of mania
Of hate and death and paranoia
Intoxicated by the deception
Whispers, and cunning manipulation
We spend life digging our own grave
Wishing for redemption for all the hurt we gave
We look for escape in anything
Cuts and liquor, dreams of being king
Anorexia, self-harm and overdose
Crying all night for someone close
Who can save us from each other?
And society’s judging, ignoble smother
Of things that are not good cause they’re not the same
We brand these people with the mark of shame
For being who they really are inside
And so our world is dyed
In black and red and shades of grey
Pushing people away but wanting them to stay
We keeping going, screaming, yelling our hearts out
Until we reach our very last shout
And so we end life wanting more
But we have nothing forevermore.
