Pity in the Eyes

There is pity in their eyes, And it all runs deep

They are fighting for answers and losing sleep

Begging for mercy, for an answer or sign

But nothing is coming as they run out of time

Life falls in pieces and parts on the ground

They ask to a God who is not there now

Fighting, and pulling and pushing through

To a life that has leftover value.

Dreams once in color, now seem so grey

what do we do to encumbered by decay

Heed this warning, pay all mind

for we are the ones who could run out of time
