Desolation

Another day has gone by
I have hardly seen me cry
I'm burned and dusted
But I sure have tried

If I fancy evil someday
I'd throw up my arms
Desolation has its charms

Living isn't nail- biting
Nor is it exciting
It isn't a smooth glide
Just phantom fighting

What good is a word
If it is not spoken
What good is a word
If it is broken
What good is a word
It's only pages
What good is a word
If it's been ages

Let me fuel the pain
See if my heart warms
Desolation has its charms
