Often plain will stain Greatness That which stood so long without Now can barely hold the word The word is like tape with no stick left Merely a shadow of what once was And if pushed on very hard There are days it sticks Still that word quickly falls Like a placid old ******** Lost the meaning of the word Great Yet it still stands in all its useless glory Too proud to sit the **** down Admit that life…is always shity Yet we smile We smile until it hurts To prove that importance is second Because sometimes it's good to remember that happiness Can hurt to reach for in the hands of others Not because of anything It is just the price of flying

Hairy falcon
Often plain will stain Greatness That which stood so long without Now can barely hold the word The word is like tape with no stick left Merely a shadow of what once was And if pushed on very hard There are days it sticks Still that word quickly falls Like a placid old ******** Lost the meaning of the word Great Yet it still stands in all its useless glory Too proud to sit the **** down Admit that life…is always shity Yet we smile We smile until it hurts To prove that importance is second Because sometimes it's good to remember that happiness Can hurt to reach for in the hands of others Not because of anything It is just the price of flying
