Still Bummed About The Library Of Alexandria - Tumblr Posts

Burnouts

Everybody has their own vices to cope with a life on high alert; Running on and on to keep up with the roulette, ‘till you’re irrelevant and inert. And you drown yourself in silent desperation until your insides are rotten, But even then everybody loses and everyone is forgotten.

The worst half looks in the mirror and lies: Tells itself that legends never die. The better of us know better than to fight life’s dysgraphia. Everybody knows that we’ll burn like Alexandria.

So until then we wait and count our days, Indulging to hold on to glory before we fade. The fading begins and it won’t ever stop, An abyss for us all when the memory’s lost.
