'written In Stone' Parts 1 and 2

Part 1
I write and write, but nothing changes/ I scream and scream, but my voice is silent/ I feel my life is written in stone/ Carved and written by my blood and bones/ You laugh and laugh, I think silent suicide/ You become ashes and smoke, your my cyanide/ You feel your life is written in stone/ We try and try, and we continue to try and strive/ We learn and learn, but as arrogant as a primitive tribe/ Our future, destiny, and life is written in stone/
Part 2
I read the stone slowly/ To analyze the thoughts and process life as I get older/ I understand the written language/ Because it is my thoughts and my soul/ That make me the fish out of the bowl/ I gasp for life, each second becomes precious/ I cannot escape what makes me... me/ I bleed upon the stone, which is written by my own blood/ When will the scar heal/
