When the lights go down and the crowd goes home when the night rolls out and the demons come. Will you hold me through the storm? ..until the peace at dawn.

I need a change of scene, I'm tired of everything just being green.
Why not purple why not red why not even orange instead.
The world after a while gets so dull and plain and I can't take the fact that it just stays the same.
Day after day, night after night.
I don't know how I'm gonna win this fight.
The fight called life, that's the one thats tough. And everyday just gets more and more rough.

Everyday I walk around.
With this pain in my heart.
And if you ask me why I'm hurting. Well I wouldn't know where to start.
You see you did something to me that changed me through and through.

And if you asked me why I am who I am today the answer would be you.
So you see it's hard to drive to the places we use to go.
Because inside you're always there.
And no one really knows.

Isn't it important,
That we love and are loved in turn?
When all else fails and turns to naught,
Isn't love what burns?

Tell them I lived for a purpose.
That I held my future to the sun.
That I ran across the oceans.
Just to help someone.

All he ever wanted was to be the man he needed to be.
To make everyone happy.
That was his dream.
But the people killed his hope.
His last faith in humanity.
Like the last strand of a rope.
About to break free.
Because they thought
Temporary > eternal.
And that's what they learned in school.
But what they should be taught
Eternal = only a kernel.
Of life on this earth.

— The End —
