The End

My deepest desires
Submerged in my soul
A life wrought with lies
Now taking its toll
What can I do
When all has been lost
Bill had been right
With the Tempest that's been tossed
I'm losing me an inch at a time
I'm losing me an inch at a time
The circus tent is all in tow
The lion tamer erect and ready
The elephants depressed and looking sad
The fat lady baritone and heady
It's not a choice so don't blame me
As I'm sitting in the stands
A hazy film wafts over me
And you may get angry and not understand
I tried to get help
And fight all I could
But my freak family didn't support me
And love me like they should
Chains of sorrow
Plagued me every day
Cortisone wreaked havoc
In each and every way
The chemical imbalance
Situational indeed
Escalated
Like your predilection for weed
There's no way out
The tent has come down
And the circus train
Rolls on to the next town
Life goes on for the lucky.
