It wasn't for a lack of trying
That I stopped this game
Hoping they would arrive someday
But they never came
I gave it everything I had and did my best
But that's not what they want
You've got to be like the rest

Don't pass your judgement on me that would be unfair
Every passing moment the less I care
My new choice is apathy and no longer prayer
Every passing moment the less I care

Is it true what they all say
A dream deferred is a dream denied
If that is the case then long ago
I should have died
