Did you ever destroy something,
but never did you see what it was?
Did you ever lie so swiftly,
and not even know the reason why?
Did you ever see it all,yet when you saw,
you saw nothing?
Did you ever have enough,
yet to the star you wished for something?
Did you ever love someone,
but now you see that it was just hurt?
Did you ever lived too much,
that now you waist and rot to dirt?
