With The Worms

by Jaime   Mar 19, 2005


I've been struck with the sudden realization
That I'm never going to live up to your expectations
Although I'll spend my life constantly trying
Unnoticed and losing is how I'll end up dying
I'm sorry I'm not what you wanted me to be
I'm just trapped in these chains, trying to break free
I would prove I was worth it at any cost
But all I amounted to was a financial loss
A waste of time, a waste of effort
Nothing more than a speck of dirt
I know that after I'm dead and gone
You'll all be quick to stand up and move on
Don't waste flowers or your tears on me
I'm with the worms, where I deserve to be
But please notice that the girl who lies in my grave
Just couldn't take advantage of the opportunities life gave
