What do I see in the far off distance?
Pushing me forward to ignore the resistance
To give up and fail and accept my fate
It’s all that remains of my current state

A beleaguered individual without any hope
To give up the struggle and let go of the rope
Letting my soul tumble down the well
Leaving my expectations where they fell

I stand in the Desert my breathing is slow
The sun beats down on me I can barely go
Hunched over with my hands on my knees
As the dust swirls around me and makes me wheeze

Coughing and choking on the blowing sand
My legs start buckling and I can barely stand
My will remains strong despite my belief
That inevitable failure will bring me relief

Heading towards gratification is the unconscious emotion
Sideways I move away from that notion
No happiness to be found in a desired vision
To reject its false promise is the best decision

Love is but a falsity that we ache to believe
The weight of this burden we must relieve
A waking dream that you choose to bear
Forget the promise for it doesn’t care

Love makes our senses rise and float
Making us believe that our heart can hope
Don’t be fooled by the mirage you perceive
For caring and affection you will not receive
