In the Clouds
So much to live for
Hearts touched
And explored
Life is but a double-edged sword
Can we all reach an accord
Any time soon
Since we can't afford
To meet our impending doom
Why do we assume
The roles that consume
Our lives are presumed
Innocent? Yet never
Proven guilty
It's for the better
To polish what is filthy
Wishful thinking
Blissful preaching
Falls upon deaf ears
Sick to the tears
With all of these fears
Eating us alive
So, we no longer thrive
The will to strive
Continues to drive
Truly feel alive
And you will finally arrive
To your final resting place
Death comes with grace
And we must all face
The devil's trace
In the end,
It all feels the same.
