Resignation lurks around the corner
Can't see it but you know it's there
Subtle scent of rotting hopes
Hanging in the stagnant air

Lucky you don't have to move
You can hang around all day
Something will happen soon
You'll find a truth to bray

You think you hear it chortle
Something stirs within you
Thoughts that you've lost the war
But fear can't last forever in the new

Fear like all lays down and dies
When despair around the corner lies
