Nothing Left

There’s no use trying, there is no denying. It’s worthless, hollow,
so declining. Life as we know it is based upon lies
A joke, a farce, ‘till the day we die
There is no hope for generations to come. Humanity will remain deaf and dumb.
No reincarnation, no! There’s no afterlife
Just worthless goals for which you strive
No god to reward you, no hell where you’ll burn
Everything you gained, to dust it will turn
All your ideas flushed down the drain. All that is left is sadness and pain.
As I wallow in the mud of remorse
I look back in anger at the grief that I caused
The joys and pleasures I used to indulge in, are too far behind me to even
remember. Love turned to hate, and hate turned to bitterness. I’m too
disappointed to ask for forgiveness
Nothing left to conquer, nothing left to gain
Nothing left to fight for, nothing’s worth the pain
The fire’s been extinguished. The flame of life has died
