In Vain - Nailed To Obscurity

Anonymity guides us through

Days so grey and cold — Into obscurity

We’re all of of a kind — Obsolete

We feel useless and old

But we carry on

Struggling for acceptance

Begging for tolerance

Without any result

Always feeling like

We’re the dysfunction

Of our environment

Of our own existence

One by one we fall

Into oblivion

It’s just another step

Into nothingness

And things we endure

Lead us closer to the edge

The edge of a deep abyss

When it comes down to it, it was all in vain

So careless — So ruthless

Inconsiderate

Without any result

And can we ever change

Can we ever abandon

This fatal situation — Escape from the scourge

One in a billion — left alone

Here to perish — Born to die

Sentence of death

Birth starts our life — Death ends our life

Yet nothing happens in between

Hypnotized by a perennial strife — An infinite trap

Which end is nowhere to be seen

After all we carry on

Still struggling for acceptance

Still begging for tolerance

Without any result

Always sensing the malady

The dullness of life

Unaware of the antidote

That could be the cure

One by one we fall

Into oblivion

It’s just another step

Into nothingness

And things we endure

Lead us closer to the edge

The edge of a deep abyss

When it comes down to it, it was all in vain
