Hopeless

Hoping one more time,

I pause to catch my breath again.

Wanting more than this,

Try to regain myself again.

And in this faking world,

We strive to be perfect again.

Wishing that I could...

I might just gag myself again.

I'm hopelessly hopeless

Coming to the realization

That I'm barely even here.

Maybe we're all just illusions

Of another's fantasies.

Maybe we're all just a mixture

Of another's remedies.

And everything falls apart,

And we've run out of options,

And we have lost everything

But the truth.

We've gone so far down,

Can't see the surface anymore.

Slipping from my fingertips,

We can't feel nothing anymore.

And then we finally give up,

Sour, rotting, sore.

And the medecine we take,

Can't numb the pain anymore.

We fall down the stairs of glory,

Right to the bottom of its rotting pit
