Lemmings

We live like mice, eternally.
We've never seen the endless...
Lemmings en route we'll have to see,
Where will it take our ashes.

We've run away, we've run so far
Making our wish upon a....
How much, how long, how deep we bleed,
once more to wet these lashes.

We've never paid the price for life,
We've never broken through the ice,
We'll never stop, until the last
and final breath...The shortest gasp.

So few will pay enough for love,
Look over push, go straight to shove,
A quickened flinch and a little blood,
our chastity lies deep in mud.

Never hurry, never worry,
never lift your face from the ground.
Never gain an ounce of hope.
Know what you've sought is what you've found.

Never struggle, never forgive,
never wake from dreaming, never live.
Never put the pieces together,
always take and take and take until they give.

We've never paid, we've never seen,
we run from all we've ever been,
We've never hurt enough to count,
"Just make it stop", any amount.

We run and cry, we blindly fight
and take down others just for spite,
We have no lives, just hollow speak,
we are the masses we're the weak.

We are the ones who have control,
we are the ones who've dug this hole
We are the idiots and thieves
we love the past and don't believe.

We have no hope and yours we'll burn
too weak to think, too dumb to learn
We are the masses here we sit,
every thing we touch turns right to shit.
