What a tragedy.
All these promises unkept.
All the memories.
Of us at our best.

Why do we go on.
Saying all the things we never meant.
Why do we continue.
To make our lives a mess.

We make the choices.
That destroy our hearts.
We cause each other so much pain.
What is even worth.

& why do we go on.
Making up these lies.
This isn't who we are.
The people deep down inside.
Why do we keep feeling this way.
Thinking about the days.
When truth is all we knew.

We hold fate in our hands.
So what do we do.
Get all wrapped up in things not to do.
& here we are again.
Spinning around and around.
Someone stop us.
Take a moment and look in our eyes.
Grasp life once again.

Why do we go on.
Forgetting all the good.
Because of all the bad.
If you'd only listen.
Why do we even care.
