Life

You feel empty, there's nothing inside You don't understand, and you can't describe Emotions are useless, when nothing is real Senses are worthless, when you cannot feel It's all pretend, everything is fake Maybe it's better, for your own sake You search for happiness, but it's just a lie Love is only a word, a breath, a sigh Your dreams are a movie, in the dead of the night They disappear, in the morning's light You question yourself, as life questions you You try so hard, you want happiness too One day you wake up, old and alone What has happened, where did the time go Life passed you up, as you watched from the side You didn't get to live; And now you've died
