-
I've been struck by inspriation,
A sudden motivation,
There are times when I look at you and think
"Maybe today won't be so bad."
It's a ******** situation,
A slave to infatuation,
I don't want to think about it,
I just wanna try smiling for a while.
The streets, crowded with people.
Each soul with a story to tell.
Our hearts, beating in unison and
making wasted wishes on the stars that fell.
But we can't be concerned,
with the warnings and the lessons that we've learned.
Cry out just one more time!
If we can make it to tomorrow, then we're doing just fine.
Mistakes. Heartaches. Rough breaks.
I'm just wasting time with rhyme until we find ourselves again.
Daylight is burning like the end of her cigarette.
Check yourself twice, make sure that you don't regret:
her, you, or anything you do tonight.
Nothing says love like "You're so forgettable."
Nothing says love like "You're unattainable."
Nothing says love like "Help me off of the floor. I can't take anymore of what you've got to give me."
I need to find what's best for me,
and how to keep my sanity.
I try so hard to hold us up,
but Atlas falls-- Atlas falls.
Breaking. It shatters into a million pieces,
scatters to a million places,
relfecting a million faces,
but this is all I see.
Mistakes. Heartaches. Rough breaks.
I'm just wasting time with rhyme until we find ourselves again.
When you grow tired of nicities,
of complex Neitzche miseries,
of life and its atrociouties,
be sure to let me know.
'Cause when the drugs don't work we'll find something stronger,
and try to hold on just a little bit longer.
Never never never ever letting go,
yet drowning all the while.
And when we sink as far as we can,
we'll climb back up to the top and we'll fall again.
It's all that we can do--all we know how to.
There's no point in pretending it's any other way.

- I read it. I don't really have a comment but at least thought of letting you know that I gave a s**t or two, to read it. In fact, here's a comment: I actually like it.
