Caught Up In It All

by lily--leo - Not entered

Laughing at our footsteps
Laughing at who we've been
Shame in our grievances
Pride in our sin
Chased eternity for a day
Met immortality under a bridge
Never thought twice on what to say
Regretted any and all of our ways 
Life is too long or are we just too bold
All our tales - lies untold
All these thoughts - just a little too bold
All these people - gimmics to be sold 
Slap a label on my face...
Spin me twice and call me grace
This will save my soul from the truth...
But I ask, will it save it from you?
Turn your seen side when needed most,
Prepare for eternity and man's will to boast
Call me names, but call me normal
This protection: all too formal
Birth sign: Not entered
