Fallen Angel

your life’s in a rut you’re stuck in second gear quickly losing all you’ve ever held dear all your ambitions all your life’s missions no longer exist in your mind the things you’ve done were all in vain nothing you’ve found eases the pain you want to end it all this very night you tried to climb to the top only failing to see that maybe making it was never your destiny you’ve no more strength to carry on your life’s struggles have lasted too long the ballad of your life is the saddest song you dive from up high flying like a fallen angel at last letting go of your grievous past the people finally see you from down below finally see you drowning in sorrow your time has now come and passed as your body rains from the skies everybody finally hears your desperate cries but it’s too late to help you now you’re falling down falling toward your very end leaving behind no family or friend you hit the ground now the world gathers round staring in wondrous horror you lie there in death having breathed your last breath suffering your life no more
