The Greatest

You're at your peak And you're feeling your greatest And you're standing at the pinnacle of it all Long short, it was short lived And that happiness goes down in crumbles You fall And all the ones who were cheering you on Are now the people Who are laughing at your downfall And now you walk out in the street Wearing hoodie Hoping it'll make you invisible And now you spend every day in bed And you can't get out And the voices got too loud So you shut everything out And the absence of your presence Was not noticed from those in town And no one knows what happened next But from what I heard, you drowned Red, blue lights are flashing All of the fakes are present They'll bring their flowers and say How you were the greatest Make up some story to tell And make sure a couple tears fell While they reminisce on How you were the greatest I'll write the eulogy And it'll go on and on about How you were the greatest And they'll obviously be other stuff there It'll be fluff and blah blah blah They were so endearing and loving We love them (Flashback when) You felt like nothing When you fell from your greatest You were standing at the lowest point of it all And the misery lasted for years And you wished that someone would text or call And all the people now shedding their tears Wasn't by you while you were shedding yours And now you're gone And everyone goes back to acting How they were when you were invisible And now you spend every day in the ground And you can't get out There's no more voices you can hear Nothing to shut out And the absence of your presence Was still not noticed from those in town And no one cared about what happened next They don't care that you drowned Red, blue lights are flashing All of the fakes are present They'll bring their flowers and say How you were the greatest Make up some story to tell And make sure a couple tears fell While they reminisce on How you were the greatest Red, blue lights were flashing All who hated you were present They brought their flowers and said How you were the greatest They made up some story to tell I watched as those fake tears fell As they forgot your name And they said you were the greatest
