Peering through the dark Wondering where I failed Another smile to say “I’m great” But I would never say I’ve healed Friends caring all too much Sorry, your pasts I can’t relate I made hate exist in my heart And I can’t take it away I don’t want you to worry But this is what I cause To lose what I dreamed of most Mundane thoughts of a talent lost It’s the magnitude that makes me sick Makes me seem sadder than I am But there’s really nothing left for me My dreams will eventually break in time © 2003

Chronicles of a Failure (Realization)
Peering through the dark Wondering where I failed Another smile to say “I’m great” But I would never say I’ve healed Friends caring all too much Sorry, your pasts I can’t relate I made hate exist in my heart And I can’t take it away I don’t want you to worry But this is what I cause To lose what I dreamed of most Mundane thoughts of a talent lost It’s the magnitude that makes me sick Makes me seem sadder than I am But there’s really nothing left for me My dreams will eventually break in time © 2003
