Young Enough

I lost my life at seventeen 
When they put your body in the earth, 
I swear they buried me 
I've been thinking a lot about life 
and how it never seems to matter 
what your dreams are, or if they're ones you can reach 

We're all on the same long path to nothingness... 

And once you realize 
that it's less than a lie or a half hearted compromise 
You will be free 

A cut so deep, it can never heal 
A lie so big, it can't ever be real 
It's not what you wanted... 

I'm a broken soul in a made up body 
I have friends I ignore, and some that ignore me 
I don't sleep when the moon's out 
but that doesn't seem to bother anyone 
It's okay, I learned early not to count on things 

I always meant to return your call, but you know I hate it when my phone rings 

Slam your doors like it's going to make a difference 
Cry those tears like they mean anything at all 
I guess I'll just wait 
for that fateful day 
that I realize it's all a f*****g waste 

It's not what I wanted...

As I said you write beautifully :D
This is another outstanding write! You just show that you dont care when you care too much!
"We're all on the same long path to nothingness... "
True this is. We all dont know where we are going! We just drag onto where life leads us. Not knowing who we are and where we go. Keep writing like this ^_^
