CHASING THE SUN


Powdered mirrors
Bloodshot eyes
Forget all the pain
Take another line


Night after night
Another wasted day
Caught up in a lifestyle
Slowly eating you away


Trying to occupy
Empty time
Determinations lost
In a decomposing mind


Energy overload
Now the destruction is done
Crawling through another night
Still chasing the sun


Fading with friends
Day after day
They are the only people
Who understand my pain


They’re just like me
Another victim to be
Hanging on to that thread
Of sanity


When you reach the end
You’ve only begun
That same old soul
Still chasing the sun.

  2. I like this, although the frustration of forever chasing the sun leaves me with a sad feeling. You've captured the insanity and a bit of that desperate feeling well in this.
