Blurred Reality
These days you can't be happy
The weight of the world is on your shoulders
You are a mule just pulling and pushing against the weight
You hope your restraints never break in fear that you'll lose everything
All of those feelings, memories and whatnot
Your sanity
All of your hard work
All down the drain
Spinning on and on into this eternity you created
We are just maggots sucking the life out of all we touch
Just to sustain
Your hands are tied
You've already tried it all
You've already failed
All of this anxiety and grief just to die in the end
You never change and you never change anything
You live to die and dine on empty stomachs
Empty and full of dread
You are stirring and brewing
But the soup of life is nothing but taste
We can not survive off of lies and demise
We can not survive this life
The weight of the world is on your shoulders
You are a mule just pulling and pushing against the weight
You hope your restraints never break in fear that you'll lose everything
All of those feelings, memories and whatnot
Your sanity
All of your hard work
All down the drain
Spinning on and on into this eternity you created
We are just maggots sucking the life out of all we touch
Just to sustain
Your hands are tied
You've already tried it all
You've already failed
All of this anxiety and grief just to die in the end
You never change and you never change anything
You live to die and dine on empty stomachs
Empty and full of dread
You are stirring and brewing
But the soup of life is nothing but taste
We can not survive off of lies and demise
We can not survive this life
