What does it take

What does it take to feel good

In this world that ain't no good

What does it cost to have a bite

Have a taste in this tasteless state

Breaking bones that doesn't heal

Fighting this long can make one steal

So what's the point of waiting

When the opportunities don't seem to be comingΒ 

Holding down demons that want to speak

For this craziness has gotten to its peakΒ 

Β It's been awhile since the last sincere happinessΒ 

People faking smiles to mask their weaknessΒ 

What does it take to be free

For there so many bondage one can't flee

What does it mean to be saved

For there's so much needs that one has craved

This hunger and lust keeps buildingΒ 

Far from jealousy one's just needyΒ 

The strive and stress turns one greedy

This thirst and yearn keeps growingΒ 

For life keeps bringing new puzzlesΒ 

Don't want to be tied in a MuzzleΒ 

So what does it take to be whole

Don't want to fall into piecesΒ
