Over & Done

Searching for the light of day
some say it doesn't exist
find the sun now
before it burns out
some say that's not the case.

What a waste of time
down the wrong road
 with the fastest cars
having to run back
with all that you have
well, time is up.
Too late.

Do you know that it's over?
They're closing the doors
I told you before.
Do you know why it's over?
Why does the world have to end?
Because we pretend
that we don't know that it's over.
It's over and done.

I was born under the shadow of death a burden of fire and stones on my head when will we realize this illusion is for the dead, rich and unkind? I was born in a facade called despair danger and grace, a gift that we all share when will we realize there's nothing for smaller minds?
