Everlasting Nothing
[1st v:]
Why do roses belong
To love
Why is love always
Sung out.... in a song
How can one profess an everlasting
Anything
When given a moment
It turns to
An
Everlasting nothing
Can time be measured in a day
Can we ever remember
All the things we mean
In everything we say
Does a moment last a life time
Or does it all
In a given chance disappear
Erased...from our minds
[1st ch:]
If love stood the test of time
We'd be labeled liars
Because love soured
And is not as
Fine as wine
Too many believe in
What's not true
Only wanting for the moment
Never living in the words
Carved in stone
Realizing the stem is
So
Severely bent
So easily taken
So easily broken
So easily....forgotten
You helped me see that
There is no such thing
As a true feeling.... a true love
Just an
Everlasting nothing
That's all that's left
Of something.... that meant nothing
An ever lasting nothing
[2nd v:]
The heart
Can only forever
Hold one true love
A love
That never parts
But
For so.... so
So many
Love is spoken as easy
As water pours
Is forgotten
Because it was never existing
Substituted for more
Of absolutely nothing
{ break}
Find it at thirteen
So I believe
Die for it at fifteen
Revived to try again
Learn in time
Its all a lie
Soon it numbs everything
You just learn there's
Plenty of
An everlasting nothing
{c.v.2}
Tears may fall for the pain
Of what one believes....
Its just a picture
A picture in a pretty frame
A perfect vision of....
Total imperfection
Lies and emptiness
Build the empire of mass deception
[2nd ch:]
If love stood the test of time
We'd be labeled liars
Because love soured
And is not as
Fine as wine
Too many believe in
What's just not true
Only wanting for the moment
Never living in the words
Carved in stone
Realizing the stem is so
Severely bent
So easily taken
So easily broken
So easily.... forgotten
You helped me see that
There is no such thing
As a true feeling.... a true love
Just an
Everlasting nothing
That's all that's left
Of something.... that meant nothing
An everlasting nothing
[close]
If its love
Stars in the eyes
Rockets up above
Come on....
The one you profess love face to face
Can be so easily
So quickly
Replaced
I love you
And you.... and you.... and you.... and you.... and you
Just how many
So who is it
Just except the fact
Its an everlasting nothing
That you felt
Just an illusion you created to see
To be
What you want it to be

Inspired by ~ A most recent event of a horrible suicide attempt of someone I know { they survived, but now do not even know who they are }.... also the highly publicized relationships in the news, that show how a moments love turns in to a major nightmare fueled by hate.... and personal experiences of my own that proved how false to believe in something, that soon presents itself as, nothing! Too many believe they can love again and again and again.... if one can love that many times and substitute one person for a newer one... there is no love, its a twisted game of self deception!
