Redemption

My eyes grow tired
Of trying to focus
On lines that always change with time
Blurred into nothing
Words that have no meaning
Another careless failure
Comes to pass
This pressure won’t let me go
It’s buried inside
No home to run to
Nowhere to hide
Redemption means everything
But it’s out of my reach
No way to hold on
And no way to leave
My eyes grow tired
Of trying to focus
On words that always fall apart
Burned down to nothing
Broken dreams that won’t be
Another careless failure
Comes to pass
My mind grows tired
Of trying to focus
On dreams that always change with time
Turned into nothing
Thoughts that have no feeling
Another careless failure
Comes to pass
