Thanks a Lot

Find me in the next life

Until then I won't let you in

I trust what exists: Life

I tried

I called for a sign

To bring me to life

But all I managed to find

Were fools in paradise

And now I struggle to see in color

Carry my burdens with no ignorant bliss

Avoiding problems under the covers

But time won't stand still while I hide in my room

Without a purpose, why do I bother?

Scraping the bottom for reasons to exist

I hold my head down under the water

So that I may find this supposed white light

Slowly, I've come to realize I can only count on what I know and

Knowing without uncertainty eludes me as I wander through this life

If there's a reason for this existence, somebody tell me why

I know the world will just keep on spinning whether I live or die

One choice could end this forever, or at least in my mind

But my voice and yours heard together could shed a different light

Myths and legends (they're not real, though I feel afraid)

Fool us again (I tried to, I want to believe)

Thirst for knowledge (it takes me, it breaks me again)

Gives no solace (that I can find)
