Your Pathetic Life
I'm so cold and the world doesn't seem to keep me warm
the ants all die of starvation and there's no reason to turn
what has become this fragile mind is left with hurt that lays aside
the lights in the park are not on
and everything is just a mirage
trying to tease through this pathetic life
I don't understand
where I fell in love
when they fell inside
when I kept my pride
where they want to die
we're all buried all alone
where no one says a word
but it's written on your tombstone
no one seems to care
like I do
like I say
I'll miss this pathetic day
when the skin on our little fingers slowly peels away, everyone is in the same position wants to get away
from the hate
from the war
from their jobs
from the lies the government drills in our heads
we don't sleep
we just dream of things we can't have
but words are left unsaid
we don't get to speak
our shallow minds are told what to accept
what to buy
what to watch
and how to invest our money in get rich quick easily schemes
paying credit card debts that are insane
we are rich
we are poor
some are homeless
some just don't know
what falls beyond the dying of birds
get electrocuted by the tree that stays still
Soon ends up getting old and dies,
like the sun each night
but then will arise when the days are about to begin
The world spins
every single day a child is a born
some with futures already scheduled
and some who are born to fail
like a bird hatching from an egg right away jumps out of the nest and dies,
these are simple things you don't get
these are the things you never hear
this is a world you grew up to hate
a life you chose to live yes or no?
no this is a life you were told to live
your rights are being stripped from you
and you don't even realize it until it's to late
a war no one knows is being paid by your hard working money
a cause you think and thought was right
these are the lies you read everyday in the news
like when you turn on the TV and see breaking news alert terrorist plan attacks subways in New York get shutdown high security in airports
the funny thing is you call your friend on his cell phone and apparently nothing is happening
you go to sleep wondering
is this the last time you'll wake up Free
and if you don't JUST CONSIDER THAT DAY YOUR NEW PATHETIC LIFE
