Pick Your Poison

Regret is what man is made of

Regret for things done wrong

and for things not done at all

But does it make sense - to build defence

between ones guilt and ones need - to make ammends

The grass is always greener on the other side

So why is this true - why always view

things from a false perspective - dreams of what others do

How come the upper crust

do dream of immortality

If in fortune trust then

dead regardless

Pick your poison

What is man hoping for

Why always much wants more

Dead regardless

Pick your poison

Abscence makes the heart grow founder

Abscence when asunder

This is a wicked wonder

But does it make sense - to build defence

between ones guilt and ones need - to make ammends

How come the upper crust

do dream of immortality

If in fortune trust then

dead regardless

Pick your poison

Dead regardless

Pick your poison

Is there a point in trying

when our mentality

is hopelessly undermined

What is there left but dying

Sensing fatality

of the entire mankind

Regret is what man is made of

Regret for things done wrong

and for things not done at all

So why is this true - why always view

things from a false perspective - dreams of what others do

What is there left but dying

Sensing fatality

of the entire mankind
