Because

Because life's to short

and trying is to tough

Because hearts are to frail

and life is to rough

Because failure is just defeat

and never at all a lesson

Because sadness leads to agony

and agony leads to depression

Because this life is worthless

and it all means nothing

Because hope is useless

and its ever worth doubting

Because feelings are to much

and just something we don't get

Because our choices are faulty

and that we seem to regret

Because trust is uncommon

and never even worth while

Because being 'Deep' Is to hard

and one step seems like a mile

 

But the truth is beyond us

Its something I work for

A world without lies or depression

Or maybe even something more.

 

So I stagger forward

as you should too

In hopes that these miles

bring me closer to you.

 

Because all in all, I've fallen.

(This is the day I die, The day I'm forgotten, And the day I'm born anew)
