Never Better

Wasnt it supposed to get better?
I thought I heard you say that:
One of these days you will get whats coming
Baby, you dont have a clue what it means to be
Riding on the breaking point of destruction
No rest for the ones who need it the most
No peace for the weak and the poor
In a position of opposition
Endlessly grinding us down
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Some build for failure
Some build for trust
Fucked!
Anxiety washes in it wants me to fail
Putting me down
A thousand ways to die
But I aint giving up
Its not my time
Though understanding may never come
Im not surprised
We all buy into the circus
Dont we?
How could anyone resist?
How could anyone even exist?
I need some way to breathe
Some way to reach out and touch someone
To feel like I am even real?
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Some build for failure
Some build for trust
Celebrate this day
So far so good
Tick Tick Ticking away
These strange lands
In between
Lets pretend its all illusion
And die reaching for the dream
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Some build for failure
Some build for trust
