The Forgotten

By _Andrew_

As forgotten dreams near their wake
Those few minutes you beg to take
for through this dream you know you'll fade
Forgotten; Is your way

So many days with souls to sell
the air seems more stale, with every breath you draw
you lose the will to live or die
with effort lost, you wish it neigh
Forgotten; Is the way

With new love comes new will
you strive to fight; forever
you're sure you'll die before this end
Forgotten; Is the key

In a time when old awakes anew
In a time when values fade with dreams
You see this
And yet you strive to be like everyone else
Until today
Forgotten; Is you
