LONG TIME DEAD


Searching for perfection in this life
But it never does materialize
So many hours have been wasted
Making life unnecessarily complicated

But this stubborn heart of mine
Won't listen, won't tow in line
I'm done fighting its crazy desires
I'll succumb to the inevitable fires

I thought it would totally enthrall
But, desire has been my downfall
Can't complain, for it's my fault
As I give in to the raucous tumult

Now I'm dumb, deaf and blind
On the precipice of losing my mind
But I can't turn back now
To the addiction, I can't say ciao

I'll ride the rollercoaster till the end
But don't follow in my footsteps, friend
For, despite its sparkle and allure
You'll forever be desiring more

You'll be reduced to being a slave
No peace at all; just crave after crave
And then you're lost in ignorance
With no time for repentance

And then, it's too late to go back
You're miles off the righteous track
Now lying alone in the hospital bed
I realise I was already a long time dead
