There was a time when battles raged over such tiny blips Such sinking ships Such useless worry that would define my time
Mine was a mind that couldn’t think for thinking Stuck in thoughts till sinking but now I’m thinking Simplicity is fine
I wanted to be counted I wanted to be heard I wanted all to pay attention To even my weakest words
And things I said in jest I meant in truth You cannot judge senseless defenses Whispered in a sheltered youth
I used to have many things Now I just have one I used to work for money But now I work for fun I used to have a list of woes that held no weight I wasn’t ready to not be petty I had given up to fate
If all the people I claim to care for Have at one point or another Inspired hate in me And more Was it them or was it me Or did it even matter who was wrong Only a fool goes through his life Short on heart but memory long
