extinctionA Poem by Lyric
Why is it that we give ourselves hate?
We argue over how we'll end Well, Looks like we've chosen our own fate And looks like it's bigger, Than everything on all of our plates, And that's put together It turns out, That, Apparently were not birds of a feather Because, Brothers care about their brothers state They help when they're in trouble, Pull out their notes, And ask, Time place and date? They don't care who did what yesterday, Because today and now, Their wants imitate Each others We need to stop comparing ourselves To our sisters and brothers Because in the end, When our fate is clear, And the only ones who were there for us, Turn away with a sneer, Where everyone and everything is enemy And nothing is dear In that moment, On that day In that oncoming year, We won't have each other to dry any falling tear, We'll all stick to ourselves, With no sorry thoughts for ourselves, Forgetting each other as we tremble in fear We're still driving to the cliff, But the turbulence isn't mere, And it might be stuck, But it's not to late to change gear, Might as well grab that spatula, And loosen it up, Because as bad as I don't want to admit it, There's not room for waiting here, Grab the oil, It's already hit the expiration date, So don't let it spoil Don't let this dream of redemption disappear Because No matter what we to want think Without each other, We are all each other, We're more than just linked And without each other We will go extinct © 2015 Lyric |
