The Inevitable Failure

As I stare up into the night sky
I find it difficult not to cry
Billions of stars come and go so fast
Though countless lives they will outlast
Trillions of galaxies, swirling, have come to pass
Then why ours, continuing on?
Why this rock of hellfire thriving near a sun?
A race of hellions plague its crust
Who's wars, hatred, bigotry, lust
Rage on and on 'til their return to dust
Not to our Mother Earth nor Father Time
Would we selflessly forfeit a single dime
We lie, we cheat, we steal
Attempting our gaping wounds to heal
In this attempt its sad to say
More gaping wounds we give away
I'm dizzy now, the sky is spinning
My eyes are misty, the stars are swimming
Please let me drown in this grand pool
Of timeless infinity glistening with jewel
In my years, I've come to know
Our aspirations and dreams are all for show
I'm finished now, my limit I reach
Ponder upon these truths I preach:
Nothing changes, nothing works out
Everything beautiful becomes putrid
Everything good becomes evil
Everything sacred falls to ruin
Everything pure becomes tainted
Everything true are elaborate lies
Everything dreamed ripped away by reality
Everything sane becomes hysteria
Everything noble becomes disgrace
Everything useful will fall to waste
Everything mighty eventually breaks
Everything necessary is never realized
Everything learned is often forgotten
Everything fresh eventually rotten
Everything happy eventually cries
Everything living, inevitably, dies.

Why can't I just sleep forever?
Why can't my brain calm the fuck down?
Why can't you help me?
Get out of my head, get out of my head.
I'm tired of this shit. Playing over and over.
Reminders everywhere. Just leave me alone.
I want to go somewhere that nobody knows.
You'll never find me, and I won't exist.
Maybe then, I'll finally get some god damn rest.

Stop.Fucking.With.Me.
