no escape

This is a life we all once knew,
pain and sorrows meant to see.
We all must pray we make it through,
most do eventually.
But some people do get lost,
they take the unknown path.
Cheers to them is what I say,
give life the finger and just laugh.

Feels like an empty bottle of broken glass,
a thousand shards of your memory.
That picture you know can never last,
cause now you believe its all a fantasy.
Your heart is caught in a metal rope,
tied in a web full of painless shadows.
You can't deny the step towards hope,
since being cut by a thorn who was missing her rose.

Its just a chance to see you fail,
punching in and out day after day.
Can't escape the charge of bail,
wanting nothing but to run away.
Nothing means more than anything less,
can't see the light through all the darkness.
But the darkness is here to stay,
that's why its gotta be done m way.

Always a fight against society,
wanting someone else to take the lead.
Just comes to be a major disappointment,
But who you are is all that's important.
Life's all about competition and bliss,
truth be told it's what you get away with.
Some are gonna fall, Some are gonna fly,
we all live once and then we die.

This is a life we all once knew,
pain and sorrows meant to see.
We all must pray we make it through,
most do eventually.
But some people do get lost,
they take the unknown path.
Cheers to them is what I say,
give life the finger and just laugh.
