Everyone is happy
All dancing around
But no one realizes
They're all earth bound

They are all cursed
Forever failures
Always kept
Locked by the sailors

The sailors of sorrow,
Mishief, deceit
No one will ever
Reality, defeat

The truth is we're stuck
Together in death

So why do we try
To lean on those not there
To give angry glare
To ask for help
From those who don't care

Why try to be close
To people so far
So distant from reality
No one sees the char

The ashes remain
They flutter here and there
Its a permanent snare
That we all ignore

Optimism they say
Things could always be worse
But they are the ones
Who ignore the curse

The curse of ashes
Poisoning our air
The curse of friendship
One oh so fair

Yet it all crashes
For no love was real
This is where
Your death it does seal

Only those who are strong
Can truly see the world
And the curse we all know

Is only acknowledged by them
The world is broken,
Shattered, and torn
Yet we desire to see joy
Fulfillment, and love.
But none of it exists
We torture ourselves with dreams meant to be broken.
We never truly see the failure of Ourselves, Our world, Or the power of the Curse.
Only those with true thoughts
Have the power to see the fallen state
We are all hidden in

Too many people ignore our broken condition
They then hurt those around them
With visions of hope that are never meant to be.
