Resilience Lyrics by White Fields

It Can Not All Be Roses

0

A dying seizure in your eyes
Hollow stares that reflect mine
Your shaking body pale and lost
This crumbling wall was built by time

You would not in a thousand lives
Live up to what you’re told was right
I missed out on my part in this mess
Resilience as a state of mind

If the reason for our existence
Was to question the non-existent
Why should we even try
A glass-shaped laugh at the value of a life

The inherent fear of a big dream
Can’t be swallowed down a throat
I still hear ice-cold metal
From the inside of your coat

And you wave goodbye
Man, you’re waving life goodbye

As if time would heal all wounds
And (as if) contributing pays off
I’ve seen her desperate eyes
- uncounted tears of loss

And I swear there comes a day
When they ask you and you say:
I did as I was told
(Now I’m) desperate, fucked and old

All the tragedies untold
I fear it hits you when you’re old
When your deathbed sheets unfold
And nothing turned to gold
