Acrostichon

Acrostichon


There's no turning back 
Back out of life 
Life's adversity 
A grotesque contradiction 

Drowning in hope 
Hope gets distorted 
Distorted mental state 
Feel the pain of life 

I hold in contempt 
Those without thoughts 
A stupid kind of happyness 
Not aware of what's to come 

Scarce moment of joy 
To good to be true 
Feelings lighten up 
Who will take it away 

Thinking you've got friends 
Feeling good inside 
Comparative moments 
Of joy will fade away 
Gaining feelings 
It feels so good inside 
Comparative moments of joy 
Will be taken away 

People surrounding me 
Don't understand my ways 
Forcing myself into depression 

Going through a mental hell 
Bust up my own mind 
Comparative moment of joy 
Has been taken away 
Time after time 
Things seem so different 
Don't grow attached to people 
They'll take it all away
