Could i take just a moment?
Could i ask where you’re going?
But to reach your destination
Not a second can be spared
And i tip over sideways
As you push towards better days
And the finish line is there
Within your reach if you just
Dare to take a stand
Make your mark and show your hand
Say that “this is who i am”
And so it goes
But where do i begin?
When i have to start again
I’ve destroyed my future plans
And the child goes
I exist
I can scream it to the world
And if no one listens
I will burn my tongue on little
Platitudes ’til thе spittle
Glistens like thе rain
Smile all the same
Guess i left a lasting memory but
You just can’t recall my name
I exist
I am proof of the absurd
And hypocritical
Pieces of a cynical philosophy
Staring through
A mirror full of rage
Everything you hate
Guess i was a martyr for the person
That you put into the grave
I could break my foundation
The bedrock i made when
I was younger and my dreams
Were only years out of my reach
I could make up a figurehead
For the times i wished you were dead
And for leaving me behind
To sort what never could have been
Tell me the tally is up
Look at the numbers
And tell me you don’t see the trend
Nothing is never enough
One after one and the one in the end
The facts are clear
You’re never here
It’s not like you ever were mine
Add it up, i caught you in a lie
I’m fine
I exist
I can scream it to the world
And if no one listens
I will burn my tongue on little
Platitudes until the spittle
Glistens like the rain
Smile all the same
Guess i left a lasting memory but
You just can’t recall my name
I exist
I am proof of the absurd
And hypocritical
Pieces of a cynical philosophy
Staring through
A mirror full of rage
Everything you hate
Guess i was a martyr for the person
That you put into the grave
