The Color Red

I am full of words that I've never said

This world will pick you up and then slam you on your head

And tonight is as good as any to slip and wind up dead

There's no answers to my questions, not in all the books I've read

You hate the sight of blood but your favorite color's red

 

And It's all such a shame

But there's no one here to blame

Because life, unfortunately, is not a fucking game

Gotta keep pushing forward 

Despite your exhaustion and your pain

 

Don't you worry son

Because soon your day will come

And no matter how fast or far you run

You won't escape the damage you have done

When darkness overcomes you, just keep staring towards the sun

 

And if there's a life after this

I'm certain my name is not on St. Peter's list 

But my soul will indelibly persist, until I finally find true bliss

Through the warmth of a true love's kiss or by leaving this world better than when I started, only then will I be missed.
