no one's going to catch you
falling out of place
with cautionary tales of emotional disgrace
idealism fails in a world that never cared
solitary diamonds, too rough
to take beautiful shapes
led like a horse to water
with sand trapped in its throat
forced to kneel in silence here
outside the castle moat
where chaos surrounds life
in a world that's never fair
nature's morbid tendency
to drift everything to disrepair
