A Dying Flame
You always try,
and you don't know why
you are pushed away
in your eyes they stare
and tell you that you shouldn't care
leading you to a road of despair
where your soul strays
in the darkness it stays
filled with lies and disgrace,
and you can't find your place,
and you keep losing your face
fallen from grace,
and you don't know what to say
to make it all okay
oh what a tragedy
you became a travesty
drowning in your misery
feeling the agony
so you go back happily
back to your apathy
snapping necks and psychopathy
an act so praiseworthy.
Pretend it was all a game
and take the blame
because it's all the same
just another empty frame
in the hall of fame
and while they say you have no shame
your heart will wither like a dying flame.
