尊嚴

By 陳柏宇

活在過去 成為負累
站在前面不知這個是誰
沒力佔據 事實已失去
為何想緊握已潑出的水
縱對世界繼續狂號 都找不到去路
去到淚水已告盡耗 也許鬆手釋放你
笑着結束雙方都更加好
站在真相面前無常人的尊嚴
我妄想可補救其實極幼稚
明明早改變是我不知羞恥
還望勸服你是意氣一時
就在這秒奪回曾遺忘的尊嚴
勉強再乞討你還是沒意義
仍然感激你 贈我這一個故事
才明白別去的人 無名字
閉上兩眼繼續迴避 彼此諸多顧忌
愧對自己勉強着你
也許鬆手釋放我
笑着結束可加速我心死
站在真相面前無常人的尊嚴
我妄想可補救其實極幼稚
明明早改變是我不知羞恥
還望勸服你是意氣一時
就在這秒奪回曾遺忘的尊嚴
勉強再乞討你還是沒意義
仍然感激你 贈我這一個故事
才明白活過的人 遺留憾事
就在這秒奪回曾遺忘的尊嚴
勉強去乞討你還是沒意義
仍然感激你 贈我最痛日子
無情地贈我傷痕 長留在此
