I slept my motivation off, riding the wave from each day to the next. Potential is only worth the action behind the thought and lately I haven't been thinking. I was throwing my life away, like tomorrow was promised for sleeping today. I object, so quitely and nothing ever changes (and nothing ever will). So here we sit, so awkwardly while an elephant fills the spaces. It's safe to say (that talking is better than silence, it's better). I was throwing my life away, like tomorrow was promised for sleeping today. Sometimes it hurts, but we need to talk
2.
We're not long for this world (So we clutch and we claw until our fingers are breaking). And the tighter we clench the more of life just slips through our hands. Every step that we take, is one less we can make. So, when we make a mistake we can't just crumble and break. All we have are these hours become days and these nights and they fly. We can only live until we die. You lived your life to the very end. You worked so hard to make your nows better than your thens. In places where I'd break, you had the strength to just bend. And eighteen wheels just feels like such a shoddy end. We can only live until we die.

It's just another day that I wish I didn't wake up. To have my faith in my fellows shattered and broken. I remember when you said that "One brick today, is one less for tomorrow" So I'll try to stay positive. And it's so easy just to let it go. Our task it feels so daunting, our past it looms so haunting. And it's so easy just to let it go. We air these conversations, and then we change the station. I remember it was said we were all created equal. So when did people get illegal. I'm at a loss it don't make sense. This world that we live in is a series of divisions, and who made the decisions, and tells us which side we fight on? (Don't let it go) And it's so easy just to let it go. The cathode rays stole our fight, stealing the dark from all our nights. (Don't let it go) And it's so easy just to let it go. Socialized with border lines, ignoring the worst of all our crimes.
