and you know no that you're just another face in the crowds-

and then you will lift your head but none will heed your call-

They leave you in the dust like you left them

and in the mud you will sit, a fake and forgotten gem-

But until then you are so full of your own desires

ignorant of all the work you've done on your funeral pier that will be lit by flaming fires-
