Where are the tears?
Have they all gone?
Am I empty, souless?
Have I no sympathy?
Destined for a life of bloody hands
Can't speak for what I stand for
Leaps of faith equal nothing now
Steps of grace fall short of clouds
Shape my destiny and shame myself
Everyday is the same no suprises
Everything is like before, nothing!
So I sit, and wait
For what? The end?
Stare at the sky
And wait for it to come
Oblivion will save your people
God can't save you all now
The end is ticking closer
Today's gone, tomorrow near
Fascist monkeys control the throne
The doomsday clock is losing time
Or is it us that are losing grasp
We are a failed creation, hopeless!
They might have faith, but they are cowards!
Just like you, him, her, and everyone else!
So I sit, and wait
For what? The end?
Stare at the sky
And wait for it to come
As the time ticks near
And the sky fades black
I will stand and point
Point at the sky and say
I told you so

It's nihilistic, you find it depressing I find it positive. Gothic, it's not that either as again you find it negative and I find it positive. Look up nihilistic in the dictionary and you'll see what I mean http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/nihilism the third definition.

Lol, that I told you so got to me. I'm always saying dumb things I can't back up and end up arguing with some one. I hear those words a lot. This sounds pretty gothic, which isn't a bad thing. It's depressing but I have to agree with the line about us being a failed creation. Thanks for entering and good luck
