Poetic Tragedy Lyrics

Poetic Tragedy lyrics

the cup is not half empty as pessimists say
as far as he sees, nothing's left
in the cup
a whole cup full of nothing for him to indulge
since the voice
of ambition has long since been shut up

a singer, a writer, he's not
dreaming now of going nowhere
he gave heed to nothing and all that he was,
was just a tragedy

so he voyages in circles, succeeds getting
nowhere
and submits to the substance first got him there

then in
violent frustration, he cries out to god or just no one
is there a point to
this madness, and all that he was, was just a tragedy

he feels
alone
his heart in his hand he's alone
he feels alone
i
feel...

then on that last day he breaks
and he stood tall
and he
yelled, and he yelled
then in violent frustration, he cries out to god or
just no one
is there a point to this madness, and all that he was, was just
a tragedy

(backroud screaming in the last part) -
God, what went,
went wrong, God
Then he takes his life
