"For Some Abstract Concept"
I lost track somewhere
Of where sadness ends,
And happiness begins.
You told me it was just
One insignificant moment.
That it's all we've been
Waiting here for.
Well, I'm tired of waiting.

It's grueling,
It's impossible--
This thing called life.
And all for some abstract
Concept of happiness
That may never happen.
And you want to wait around?
Well, I'm tired of waiting.

Because under every smile
Is a bit of sadness,
And beneath every thought
Is a trace of madness.
There's too much pain for
Any future to take away.
I won't be missing anything.
Because I'm tired of living.
