My life was a mess
It was in shambles,
It was like a game
Too many gambles.
Who could've thought
How unlucky I am,
To lose these pearls
That were always in my palm.
That was the moment
That was the change
Took me to the top
As fast as it was strange
I remembered a lot
Too much to bear
I was at my limit
I could no longer hear
There was a voice inside
Kept telling me to commit suicide
I held the urge
For as long as I remember
There was a demon inside
That I could not drown
For it learnt to swim
That thought was as cold as December
I had lost these pearls to bullets and tanks
Instruments of mass destruction
Made by man
To kill man
Why is this world so rough?
Why is this world so harsh?
Why is this world so unfair?
What did I do to gain this despair?
All I wanted
Was a last goodbye
Maybe even a cookie
Before they had to die
