Loosing your way in life, and giving up hope.

What if at one point you saw the light

You knew you were getting somewhere

knew there was no point in a fight

you knew you could get to a happy end

You saw your future bright and gay

Ignoring all the ignorance

IT didn’t matter what they had to say

everything in life was going to be good

All you had to do is get there

You knew you could reach this place

All you had to do is continue to care

But then you slipped

Now when you look to see

You are strucken with despair

no longer do you roam happy and free

but rather into the abyss

All you see is your own despair

You weep to yourself

and wonder how you could have gotten there

You made a mistake along the way

Nothing more you can do but wait

Fighting will do no good

simply embrace your fate

the happiness was a lie all along

Now you wait to grow old

knowing what is soon to come

you will loose the happiness you now hold

and live a life of eternal despair
