Aspire -

Young man with aspirations

Out of step with the world

No remorse for the ones he’s hurt

Or the lies he’s told

He screams at the sky

Why wasn’t it me

I fuck up

Every chance

That you have given me

He swallows his pride

As he swallows the pills

Is this enough to numb the pain

Is this enough to kill

It’s all the same

He just needs an escape

Whether it’s for an hour

Or the rest of his days

His family will all

Just Walk away

And every memory of him

Will quickly fade

He will not be remembered

He did not bring change

His story is over

You won’t remember his name

He made no impact

He left no mark

He walked this earth

Baring only his scars

Heart on his sleeve

Hole in his chest

Only in death

Will he truly rest
