Shattering of the soul

A feeling we’ve almost gotten used to

We’ve rung the bell and imitated a rooster’s crow

Just to make our luck come to

Invisible emotional scars

Drowning in oceans of regret

Realising truth in our hearts

Emotionally, we’ve come from riches to rags

We work hard

And even begin planning

Then we’re forced to clap for those who don’t even try

Yes, the sun is shining

Just not on us
