Shattered dreams
and broken moments
We walk the path the world unfolds for us
with narrowed minds
and sight so shallow
like blinding lights
and soul sweet sorrow
We refrain from living
the life we've borrowed.

Push on, the say
You know you want this.
But what is wanting,
when it brings no happiness.
we struff and strive
we barely survive
and then we get the cheque,
to repeat it all again.

Shattered dreams
and broken moments
Is it really worth it
when existence is the only thing
seperating us from death and breathing.
