I feel sorrow for the world that I have in my head When compared to the real one Glimpses of my life swirling into my mind Spiral of thoughts that goes nowhere Shows me what I’ve left behind Regret, anxiety, my good friends tonight The yellow leaves of my desires Falling into the winter of my empty soul All the gold I have ever touched Turns slowly into coal In the vast wasteland of my memories Lies a remembrance of better times But in the mirror, all that I see Is there’s no change in the paradigm I think it’s due time to realize I have done nothing but wasted my youth For my own sake I need to accept There’s nothing that hurts more than the truth Weltschmerz Weltschmerz Weltschmerz Sorrow for the World Weltschmerz Weltschmerz Weltschmerz Sorrow for the World
