Demise

Our Reality

I wish I could say I was numb to the pain

But on the inside I can still feel the rage

You can't choose what you were born into

But you can find your own way

And life is served cold at night

But I try to keep it warm in the day

I won't invade your space

So why won't you let me have my way?

What happens to a family that doesn't pray

Their foundation starts to decay

One minute you're all smiles

And before you know it

The love fades away

We are all separated

We are no longer one

All I hear is fussing

And the fun is long gone

I wish things were different

But what can one man do?

If everyone is not on board

It's like a detective without a clue

We don't know where to start

The fighting enrages my heart

I just want to go away

I just need a new start

Maybe they will miss my absence

Maybe they will realize

That without everyone

We are our own demise.
