Midnight Lyrics

Here are some song lyrics I scribbled down tonight... nothing much, just thoughts running through my mind in the middle of the night refusing to let me sleep until they get to be expressed.

The world must revolve around you
Or not revolve at all
Your hypocrisy is overwhelming
Everyone must be at your beckon call

Trying to be more than you are
Just accept your mediocrity
You're nothing but a fraud
A sad figure behind a mask

And the days will swallow you whole
That's all you'll ever know

Your bitterness and ego weighing you down
Strangling the shallow life you lead
Beg to reach beyond the small towns
Freedom sounds good, but doubts overcrowd

And the day will swallow you whole
That's all you'll ever know

You wonder why no one cares about you
They try, you just won't let them be
You just don't want them in your life
Unless you can make them into what you need

Oh, and the days shall swallow you whole
The loneliness is all you'll ever know
The only ones to save your soul
Were the ones you let go.
