daydreams and pipedreams look so small
once you've seen it all
all things wither overtime.
strengths relative to whats weak nearby
health, a fleeting wishful thought
i fear, most of whats inside has died
waiting.... to be missed
to be missed and later found
far too late to save
the sun may rise for years at a time
far too late to save
collecting regrets, losing sight
resignation and contempt
letting it all go, pass on by
living for so little and so much less
pausing only to shrug off whats left
no point in counting
whats been made,
whats been saved
saved
they'll be there to take it once you've gone
once you've seen it all
all things wither overtime.
