This Barren Barge Brings Disaster

Despondent. A message of content. 

Washing rays of sun over cityscape 

Where life on the side's unresponsive. 

Bonded to the mountain, choking from the fountain 

A gutter of tears swept the streets 

With the same dead eyes in common. 

Lapsed in the leering, clutched to the steering: 

The veering, the rear-end, the side-swipe, the weekend. 

The red light, the green light, the sweating, the blinking, 

The forward, the backward, and the emotions they reel in... 

Oh, how your black clouds hang low 

Drenching the day and night 'til the dawn blurs faster. 

No house can hold these tiny thoughts 

Mustering hate, from the burdens placed 

Wearing the face of defeat in life's chapter. 

It's okay, to be afraid, 

Of the things that you just don't understand. 

We're all lost, at the cause of a flaw, 

From the error of human hands.. 

Oh, where did you go?
