Shattered
When Hopes and Dreams Are on The Edge
As I got older I thought life would be smoother sailing
But in the horizon I see a storm and with some raging seas
And though I’m trying to find my inner balance and peace
Fate sometimes shatters illusions and ideological fantasies
As I mature I must endure some trials and tribulations
The goals I had set seem to be taken away so easily
But with poise and calm I’ve got to diffuse this bomb
And I have to do it pragmatically and efficiently
As time passes by the aftermath carries a heavy echo
Beyond the blast zone a wave digs itself into memory
I’ve been burned before and it may be my turn again
As the tide is coming back with the fury of the century
My expectations can feel fragile and hang in the balance
When hopes and dreams are on the edge of the abyss
I’ve been down that road before but now I know better
But this time, I am not afraid to jump into the precipice

painful distance
Cold -
And at home;
inside the painful distance.
Growling across the grating's my rust.
It's just, I'm ALWAYS waiting!
Distance grows thin.
I'm tired of waiting.
My dreams just
add depth to a life
I'm missing out on.
A hole in my head.
I'm folding myself in half
Like a used goddamned napkin.
Fuck.
My words gave no meaning
To the life that im holding,
"Can't take it back, can't take it back, because you're
Cold
And alone
Inside this
Painful distance"
And at home;
inside the painful distance.
Growling across the grating's my rust.
It's just, I'm ALWAYS waiting!
Distance grows thin.
I'm tired of waiting.
My dreams just
add depth to a life
I'm missing out on.
A hole in my head.
I'm folding myself in half
Like a used goddamned napkin.
Fuck.
My words gave no meaning
To the life that im holding,
"Can't take it back, can't take it back, because you're
Cold
And alone
Inside this
Painful distance"

If your answer is yes, then you can visit the https://casinosanalyzer.com/online-casinos/casinocastle.com given link to find those sites with CasinoCastle casino review where you can play online casino games and can earn easy money while sitting at home only.
