Fateful Day

They say take it slow, rethink your mind

All you have is the rest of time

There's no hurry for this love youre after

Forget your troubles, join in on the laughter

But the real humor is the games they play

And the poison in the words they say

I don't deny this inner travesty

I won't pretend I'm not exactly what you see

A worried soul never resting

Thoughts and theories ever testing

To prove to only one, it's still worth it now

And put down the pain, you'll make it somehow

Not now, not ever, will they see

The real condition of the man in me

The fragile cracks on which they walk

The weight of the words they carelessly talk

It might all be mended by a single word

If the meaning of which is ever heard

Before the sun sets on that fateful day

Before it's all given up and thrown away
