Well

Sun, 07/27/2014 - 16:14 -- Keace

It huffs and it puffs,

We spare our feelings to a fault

We sit in a daze of things we forget

And the night takes us through the day

 

Life enters our bodies; we can’t help that

Our methods serve us peace of mind

Mistakes and burdens left behind

This is the way you say you make time unwind, I doubt that

 

Freedom is cursed

Can’t be reimbursed

I know it sucks but what can you do when life bites you in the butt

Sing through the pain

There’s nothing to gain

But what can you loose anyway

 

We drink, and we drown

Until it’s turned these frowns upside down

We lie in a fire of shame and regret

And as the day takes form we take what we get

 

I love all I can’t see, it keeps me blind to reality

Dried up oceans and withered trees

Broken mountains and tied up dreams

Make sense of senseless eulogies, to feel all right

 

Freedom is cursed

Can’t be reimbursed

I know it blows but what can you do when there are no signs to follow

Sing through the pain

There’s nothing to gain

But what’s there to loose in the end

 

Twisted mindsets in a screwed up world

Wear your money with your diamonds and pearls

Be invincible and you’ll remain the same, for all of time

 

Freedom is cursed

Can’t be reimbursed

I know they lied, but tell me the truth I know you’ve lied too

Dance through the night

When night turns to day

Climb out the window, it’s much more interesting that way
