forever doesnt exist

theres no such thing anymore as forever

and somebody else can do it better

when all that you hope for and all that you love

is all made of cardboard and isn't enough

nothing holds substance, its all an illusion

were planning our lives under one big delusion

theres nothing out there, it'll never feel right

when i lay my head down, im alone at night

go back to your houses, go dig your graves

because working and slavery are one in the same

you'll never reach the top with love in your heart

your fucked if you stop, and fucked if you start

we thicken our skin with the burdens on our backs

but emotional stability is something we will always lack

cause theres no such thing, were wired this way

to be miserable for any reason, given the right day

im tired of putting one foot in front of the other

and no man is kind enough to give to another

without expecting something back, what will you do for me

the one who lies the best can drain the most out of me

and im only here for you, and when im done throw me away

cause that is all there is too it, until my dying day

so you can turn the other cheek, think positive and hopeful

but i just think that you're a liar and the truth is hard to swallow

life isn't what you make, life is pointless and bleak

life is crawling on your knees for miles to try to get some sleep

and everything you put your heart into will always go away

and it'll hurt, and it'll sting until your old and gray

it doesn't get better, you're a bunch of fucking liars

don't sell me all your sympathies, your preaching to the choir

this is all that there is and its going down the drain

so put a bullet in that gun and point it right at my brain

put me out of my misery, im broken and lame

im a horse thats thrown a shoe, im a face without a name

i am every man who ever felt the weight shift on his back

cause im through with lying, the worlds about to crack

every man dies, and looks pathetic when he does it

the caskets just a courtesy, the worms will burrow through it

we all return to the earth, we all break down and rot

i hope my headstone doesn't say that i was something that im not

im no great man, no hero, nothing special in these veins

just a man full of sadness who cannot deal with the pain

so i write it all down, and give it pretty little rhythms 

to polish up my story, to fool you into something with them

oh my pathetic little words, watch a crippled man cry

i never had a happy ending, and i never said goodbye
