1d
The writhing in your soul reminds you
Of the complacency you now rue
And the apathy of many a man
Is the hard lesson you must quickly learn

While you wallow endlessly in your sorrow
Every other man looks forward to the morrow
They move on; after careless words spoken
They move on; leaving you heartbroken

Sleepless nights of mental despair
Remind you of the cruelty of human nature
And your difficulty in waking
Is the first sign that you're breaking
