any word that escapes my lips
take it for all it's worth and choke
because life is just the joke
that is only funny until we fall into our grave
but once we fall, who's life were we meant to save
Our own or our brothers that we watched die for nothing at all
because God help me when my walk becomes a crawl
i will not call this wasteland my home or shelter
when it's so far from Heaven and too off kilter
with a view of perfection to the world below
I stopped laughing ages ago
