You'll reach a point in your life
Regardless of your age
When you conclude
That this is the absolute end

Where everything you hold dear
No longer matters
When all your desires and hopes
Cease to push you on

You can no longer cry
Nor feel any sliver of joy
All you see is shades of gray
Failing to see the colors of life

Everything majestic,
To you is mediocre
Everything inspiring
Pushes you to give-up

All the love in your heart
Equates to disappointment
All the dreams you have
Transform into nightmares

All you see in the beginning
Is the inevitable end
All that life brings
Eventually leads to death

The madness of the world
Becomes so normal
And the normal
Becomes sub-standard

All you want to do in your sleep
Is to stay wide awake
And the times you are awake
You just want to close your eyes
