The Show

What is the difference between life and death?

Will we only know when we fade into the depths

and take your last breath

and will that your not a hoe

and how hard you tired

even if you lied

or if you ran and hid

maybe then they’ll see how low

you stooped

as if you tied a rope into a loop

and jumped through the hoop

maybe then they’ll know

that they broke your heart

and ripped you apart

and all you wanted was to start

to open your eyes and enjoy the show
