Resignation

Silence is golden
Brave words
Embolden 

Ignite the fire
No refuge
From this pyre

Peace is a myth
Fairytale 
Does not exist

True that it might
Most definitely 
Be my fight

But I gave up when 
This all proved
Pretend

When it's all over
No rainbow 
No clover

If this is the cost
Well then
All hope is lost

If my heart you doubt
Then good 
Because I fold I'm out
