Die Alone

Die Alone

A Poem by schnickythep
"

Live your life to die alone.

"
Walking past the windows
Of repainted broken dreams
in these shattered picket fences 
There is much more than there seems
Born out of the fallout
Ashes of a generation
Going nowhere fast
Falling into desolation

Everyone has lost their minds
And we're all dying slowly
The future's dead
There's nothing left to lose
Broken glass, broken homes
Broken people in the street
All lost without a hope
To fall back to

Watch yourself and help yourself
The city's burning down
Hold on for the broken ones
Cause no one's coming round

Waste away your life and watch 
Your hopes turn into dust
Or fall in line
And slave yourself away
Lose yourself and bruise yourself
Forget just why you came
And if you fall 
You'll never be the same

Watch yourself and help yourself
The city's burning down
Hold on for the broken ones
Cause no one's coming round

But hope is fading 
And time moves on
The world is changing
I cant hang on
But hope is fading 
And time moves on
The world is changing
I cant hang on

Live your life and die alone
Then fade into the past 
Waste all you have in waiting
Cause nothing ever lasts
Watch yourself and help yourself
The city's burning down
Hold on for the broken ones
Cause no one's coming round
