Failed to Last / Better Left Unsaid

Fading memories
Temporary
All that's over gone and passed
Today is new, it couldn't last

Sharing stories
Waiting for me
Even though it didn't work
I'll take it as my lesson learned

Keep your head up out of line
Just put a smile on I'll be fine
Drink it down don't mind the taste
No need to wait no time to waste

Oxycodone side effect
You've had your turn and don't attempt
Took a rest I'm on the street
It hurts my lungs I hate to breathe

Fading memories
Temporary
All that's over gone and passed
Today is new, it couldn't last

Sharing stories
Waiting for me
Even though it didn't work
I'll take it as my lesson learned

Tried my luck and couldn't make
That second chance I wouldn't take
Getting by I'm hating life
These razor blades they must suffice

Tried my best not good enough
I'm on the edge, I'm giving up
Looking down no looking up
I've got a voice they couldn't love

Fading memories
Temporary
All that's over gone and passed
Today is new, it couldn't last

Sharing stories
Waiting for me
Even though it didn't work
I'll take it as my lesson learned

Don't go, she wept
Sometimes things are best unsaid
Don't leave, she meant
All those times I up and left

No heart so far
It's worked to help with these scars
No stars they are
Spending nights behind the dark

Cry me a river
And drown me in sorrow
I may not shiver
But I will tomorrow
