Making things rhyme

Theory of Negativity

It's the calm before the storm surrounds you
You're hiding but afraid that no one's found you
You can cry until your tears drown you
But what will it amount to?

You've spent years and years just waiting
Don't know what you're anticipating
You know you can't keep on hating
The mess that you're creating

It's all the same, but life's a game
You don't know how to play
And every morning gets more boring
'Cause every single day

You're living by a theory of negativity
It's hard to find any sympathy
When all that's left is honesty
'Cause everyone knows the truth's not pretty
But somehow you'll survive
Even though you feel you've been deprived
Of the things that make this world alive

You might think that there's nothing for us
Stuck in a song with no uplifting chorus
All the words, all the rhymes will bore us
Stir up the crowd, but they'll ignore us

You do everything with the wrong intentions
So what you've acheived isn't worth a mention
Go against the flow, ask for an exemption
But you can't earn that thing they call redemption

Nothing will satisfy
You're crying, craving to know why
The more you try to find the highs
The more all of the meaning dies

What do you do when truths are left unstated,
When smiles and tears are overrated?
The light at the end of the tunnel has faded
But when it's all over you still haven't made it...
