What could I say,
When you asked me,
To give you a reason to stay?
I'm not sure who to be,
Or where to go.
I've tried to change,
But it's a no go.
You're out of range.
Or maybe it's me.
I can't make sense of anything.
This cannot be,
I don't know anything.
But that's old news.
Everyone knows I'm lost,
But I'd like to believe in a ruse,
One without a cost.
But that's unrealistic.
So I trudge along,
And try to be opportunistic.
But that's all wrong.
Everyone knows it's against my nature.
So why do I do it?
Perhaps I'm just a creature,
I knew it!
I can't make anyone stay.
Everyone leaves eventually,
And goes another way.
What I need essentially,
Just isn't coming to me,
Despite my effort,
It cannot be.
I'd like to retort,
But I can't find the energy.
Forget it, just forget it all.
Read the damn eulogy,
And roll the ball.
Time's been standing still too long,
And I'm not here anymore,
So just move along.
I can't write anymore.
My story's finished,
Go home.
My inspiration, diminished,
I'll just continue to roam,
What's left of my world.
It seems a lot like a wasteland,
And I can't get my wings unfurled.
It's all so tasteless.
Forget about emotions,
Forget about caring,
Keep going through the motions,
And forget about how I'm faring.
It doesn't matter.
There is no reason for anyone to stay.
Or rather,
There never was a reason for anyone to stay.
Just go away,
There's no reason to stay.

I think this thing now consists of mostly poetry and song lyrics. Enjoy anyway.
