Useless Me

Where has this day gone? Another one down the drain
Did I do anything to end my suffering?
Novelties are spent and pity has run its course

It"s time that I reached out, reached out for something more

When all is said and done, will I have the strength to stand?
Or will I live and die by someone else"s hand?
Will I break the glass as I attempt to escape the fire?
Or will I burn inside, consumed by my own desire?

Falling in torment, no good to be alone
Rending the shelter of secondary lies
Rescue me deeply and cast out this crown of mine

Further from my past, yet I still can't escape
And if the future comes, will I incinerate?
The past is soot and dust, looking from where I am
Suddenly I realize the fire goes where I stand

Falling in torment, no good to be alone
Rending the shelter of secondary lies
Rescue me deeply and cast out this crown of mine
