There is beauty in desire a bit of joy in false hope
happiness is strung like a rope around your throat
there is no light within this life
there is no cheer in pain and strife.

I see no point in smiling
when all were doing is filing
the pain we've suffered this day
and how we cannot forget yesterday

there is no happy ending, unless
we somehow find a way to address
that we aren't fulfilled by want and desire
and we truly deserve the fire.
