Is This A Life?


They warn you about failure

But no one tells you about its ability to decay your soul

A fantasy life crumbles in the face of reality

Strength dissolves like the painkillers that don’t work

It’s true what they say in all the stories

You come into this world alone, and you leave the same

Pouring up some darkness, my friend’s calling out to me

And by the time day breaks and dawns upon these tired eyes

It’s a sea of empty bottles and cigarette packets

Forgetting everything that hurts, in the haze of a high

Dazed from demons and dancing devils

Is this what they call a life?
