Live

[frozen_soul]

Everyone dies
But very few live
Every heart cries
But very few give
Gentleness fades
And forgiveness flees
Good looks become grades
And we fall to our knees
So few of us care
That freedom's not real
Just a dream that many have
Because life's too hard to deal

Chorus -
We are all weak
Like every other unlucky hero
Serving broken dreams
Refusing to be zero's
Claiming soiled titles
And raping our own hopes
Running from the noose
While weaving our own ropes
- End Chorus

I look up at the dark sky
Covered in tiny jewels
And wonder why so few of us
Realize we're fools
I wonder if I'm real
Or if I'm just an injury
Maybe I should scream
And show the world fury
Maybe if they see
That I will not be caged
They will not try to shackle
And I wont have to rage

Chorus -

I am not a lucky one
I fear the truth of hope
I run from loving arms
And I'm tangled in the ropes
I have seen a few who live
Like butterflies on ice
They don't last very long
Before they are just nice

Chorus -

Everyone dies
But very few live
