Life Long Tragedy

On track to an early grave
And I dont stand a chance against the monsters that my mind creates.
I dont want to be here, I just want to be numb
Escape the fucking people that believe in this system.
You know theyre watching, counting on your mistakes
Waiting for failure, can you carry the weight?
Once had a future, now Im watching it die
Damn my reflection in the shadows of night.
Listen closely, hear this whole world crumbling
Slowly breaking patiently dissolving
And disgusted with being spoonfed my death-
I can taste it.
Fuck my soul for collecting dust,
I was down and out in the winter months
When I lost old friends that I used to trust
And left promises out in the rain to rust.
Maybe Im losing control,
Cough up my lungs with the cynical
The older I get, still cant shake the doubt
Still dwell on the shit that drips out your mouth.
So let it be known,
Let the fucking truth be told.
Youll do your best to establish a life on someone elses time.
Your spirits only borrowed
And all you know,
You miss the days when you couldve changed old stupid ways
And all the stars in your eyes have made it hard
To even want to be alive anymore.
