Dead End Street

There can’t be anything else
So plain and simple
So brutal yet the truth

There can’t be anything else 
Like a dead-end street
Like the death of autumn leaves

There can’t be anything else 
It is ringing inside my head 
Pounding inside my heart

There can’t be anything else
Like the death of a star 
Like its end without any hope of rebirth

There can’t be anything else 
So plain and simple 
So easily said without any hesitation

There can’t be anything else 
What I wanted to hear, what I wished for
Then why does my body reject it 

There can’t be anything else 
So plain
So simple 
So true 
If asked why, no reason at all except, 
There just can’t be anything else.
