Little Man

 He did not commit to any power 

He was never really all that strong 

He was losing moments by the hour 

Since he never ever saw the dawn 


No one asked him for a favour 

No one gave him thoughts of love 

Always feeling bitter flavour 

Even from the gods above 


What a little tiny nightmare 

This man's life must have once been 

Says his mother: "Always fight her"

Being sorry for her sin 


Coming home to catch existence 

Fornicating with father pain 

Watching a poor hope's persistence 

Being useless summer's rain 


Tell us of your fake promises of soul 

Take us to your plastic heavens

Feed us lies of an afterlife hole

Keep us coming back like ravens 


Full of joy and full of laughter 

Every second might have been 

But the search for ever after 

Gets erased all you have seen 


Little man needs to be passed by

Like a shadow in a dream

Let us grow the middle eye 

Let us live shortly but within
