In Light of the Games
Tribute Mocks for Jay
How can one dream of happiness
Knowing it will be shredded, remorseless
By those who wish to hurt, who wish....
To break you like a fallen, fragile dish
How can one dream of the future
Knowing everyone near your heart
Will be used to cause it to rupture
To bring you close only to be torn apart
How can you stand living in a lie
Knowing everyone had died or will die
Not the death that naturally comes
But those slow verrrry painful ones
In your own perfect world, trying to escape
Knowing even then and now, there will be no escape
But you try living in a lie, fooling yourself
But you try to move on like your old cheerful self
Is there any cause to live on, Is there?
On a world devoid of the ones you actualy care
Like there is a way to correct a past mistake
Yes! there is but that's not a road I'll take
For I want to just rot in this dark state
To be busy dying, not going to mess with fate
Hah! cheers to us who does not accept the light
Those who have long given up life and its fight
They may want us to move on, to live, to recover
But when a stubborn idea decides to take over
They call us crazy, foolish, unstable, unhinged, unwise
But they forget that we have no reason to act otherwise
No life to return to, only unending nightmares
No one to return to, only their clothes and tatters
No home to return to, only an empty house of memories
No world bearable, if there is no one who cares
