Degrees
Degrees of separation
that only seem to lead back
to the wrong direction,
on the right path
No deviation or frustration
everything happens for a reason
though it may never seem crystal clear,
at least I'm still here
Can't seem to follow my own advice
always end up so alone and uptight
given up practically every vice
more than once, possibly twice
What I wouldn't give
to lose this will to live
in an indifferent world
that takes and never forgives
They're quick to point out
your every pathetic mistake
trying to cause heartache
falling apart to only break
Start over and begin again,
like castles in the sand
reality is the angry sea
washing all over me
