Only Purpose

As the hands of time pass by

I'm left to wonder just what I'll leave behind

Tasteless lips and broken smiles

Ghosts of yesterday come to play

My minds drowning in itself

I'm going under

Nothing left for hands to grasp

My lungs are heavy, my eyes hard to open

I'm drowning and I'm not even underwater

My mind's pushed me to the edge

My life left to nothing

Leaving a wasted corpse in its wake

Food for the worms

The only purpose I'll ever have
