Thankless

(albüm: Mire - 2018)

I've had everything fall at my feet, yet I've nothing to offer
A life filled with love that has none to repay
There's only so much one can ponder their departure
'Fore it becomes an option they might take

I am one who's given all but earns none of it
Always a net to break my shortest of falls
Should it be taken away, would I alter my ways?
Or let myself plummet into an early grave?

Is it a sin to curse the life I'm blessed with?
To let it all fade?

I know not the pains of this world, unlike so many others
But I wonder what they would do
Had they the chance to feel the bliss of ignorance once again

The waning of life is a plight that burdens most
How fleeting the woes when the end is what you covet

Is it a sin to curse the life I'm blessed with?
To let it all fade?

This slumber, so sweet, for it is the closest thing to leaving

Thankless squanderer
Aimless wanderer
Unworthy of your grief
Yet grief throbs within

Pain from lack of pain?
Is it a sin to feel this way?

I've had it all fall at my feet yet wept
When all I had to do was kneel down and lift

Thankless squanderer
Aimless wanderer
