I live on the edge
Driving into a cliff in my imagination
Here the game plays
Over and over from one triumph to the next
I regret I forget
Disappointments revive each play
I lose myself
Upon the ledge I had stood and gazed
At the power
But what is the use
When nothing ever stays

We laugh how hollow we are
How nothing matters
while we hold back the tears
We emphasize the importance of
Some distraction
Then we belittle our actions for ones judgement
We play this game
Of desire and destruction
While sinking deeper in numbing of pain
We pretend the world deepends on our play
To hide the fact that we are fading into oblivion
One step at a time

Aching Sorrow Deepends the Pain
I just go out and cry in the rain
That way no one can see the tears
Those that I've cried for so many years
I just sit here thinking of you
Age seemed to change the best of you
You make my heart shine like the morning dew
YOu made me warm like a delicious stew
She, that woman you have married
Got rid of some sweetness that you carried

— The End —
