A life worth
Nothing in value
Throwing it away
The end you take no pay
This is the hand dealt to me
Burning cards I must hold
Never a magic pill
All I know is the thrill
Life is just a dream
Gone awry
Name another saint
Shining in brand new paint
I know the mistakes I’ve made
No clock to turn but to tomorrow
This is the lot I’m dealt
Never a life of felt
Collapsing in pain
Now I know tomorrow is a lie
Feel their pain in kind
Rot overtakes your mind
I know this is a sham
But I’ll still feel this way tomorrow
Claws grip at my soul
Nothing helps to climb the pole
Of a false tomorrow
Where life pays tax to time
Death takes all that is mine
No trust for the divine
Take me far away
Ashes blow over decay
Nothing held sacred tomorrow
When foul winds blow
This is the pain I hold dear
Nothing to collapse my only fear
Know I failed
But I tried my best
Toxic futility
No measure to comfort me
My best is to know as much
Saving graces fall away
Forgive me
My transgressions
I tried to live the light
I knew so well
Now they call to me
Another dissonance
Calling me tomorrow
No saving grace left
For the already fallen
No mercy for those who tried their best
Noiselessly slip among the dead
Without so much as a whisper of protest
