When all we hear are the empty promises and lies,
that leave behind broken hearts and shattered lives.
When trust is gone and hope is lost,
what are we fighting for and who really pays the cost.
When you tell us you're sorry and you do it again,
Why do we believe you, why do we keep giving in.
When we finally realize we made a mistake,
it's too late, we've sealed our fate

We sat in a bar
We got stinking drunk
We left in my car
Were both full of *****

We drove through the night
Both talking some trash
I ran a red light
Head on was the crash

I lay in the street
The blood would not stop
A beer by my feet
Approached by a cop

Body was shaking
Heart dropped when he said
"Ain't no mistaking
Your best friend is dead."

I was arrested
*** put in a cell
Strength was then tested
In suicide hell

Very next morning
Inside a Courtroom
People were mourning
I shared in their gloom

I looked at his Mom
Eyes teary and sad
Her world without charm
I knew she was MADD

"I am so sorry
Through hell I will trudge
I wish it were me
May God be my judge."

I have no defense
I'm going away
Jail's one consequence
I sadly must pay

The price it will cost
It's steep as can be
I carry a Cross
Too heavy for me

I sit in my cell
I see your son's face
In suicide hell
I constantly pace

My heart can't go on
My soul has no *****
My best friend is gone
Because I drove drunk.”

I thought love was just a mirage of the mind,
It's an illusion,
It's fake,
It's impossible to find.

Yet the day I met you,
I began to see
Love does exist, and
It exists in me.

We come to love,
Not by finding a perfect person, but
By learning to see
A imperfect person perfectly.

A special smile,
A special face,
A special someone i cannot replace.
I love you and I always will.
You've filled a space no-one else has filled.

A bell
Is not a bell
Until you ring it.

A song
Is not a song
Until you sing it.

Love in my heart
Was not
Put there to stay

Love
Is not love
Until you give it away.

Those who don't like it
Call it
A responsibility.

Those who play with it,
Call it
A game.

Those who don't have it
Call it
A dream.
