Life takes a toll on thee, creating treachery.

We blow through the wind like dead leaves that have fallen

The world does crazy things to people like the lonely

Some people live in glee, others just want to flea

Giving up, falling to their knees not wanting to be forgotten

Life takes a toll on thee, creating treachery.

We live in the shadows where no one can see the unholy

Where no one listens to our pleas making our souls rotten

The world does crazy things to people like the lonely

In the darkness is where we sleep hopelessly.

Not being able to escape the darkness that will never be unbroken

Life takes a toll on thee, creating treachery.

Some people have the courage and strength to become worthy.

Others hope they can find magic to escape every word that was unspoken.

The world does crazy things to people like the lonely

Then there’s me where I step to the plate and do what is best for my sanity.

But become filled with fear thinking of the worst possibilities, that could be open

Life takes a toll on thee, creating treachery.

The world does crazy things to people like the lonely
