You'll always be at rainbow's end Eternal *** of gold A fairy tale told long ago Forever I've been sold I try so hard but out of reach With each hand would grab hold No need for words so please don't speak Would never let you go But when I give up in defeat The cycle getting old The hill to climb becomes too steep Turn down 'Yellow Brick Road' The Wizard who I wish to meet Told he can take me home I hear the scurrying of feet New shadow is well known But like they say it's "Trick-or-treat" And both will I be shown With me you stand here in the street No longer I'm alone Now found; forever I had seeked But actions had been cloned Reached out but this dream could not keep Like that; I'm turned to stone You laugh and turn off in retreat A call without a phone A diet forced myself to eat These actions had been sewn This game of love again I'm beat And tossed like trash I'm thrown You stole from me just like a cheat This life I live alone No tears to cry but inside weep My head, the space I roam No need to hide; Escape don't seek From now on is my home

Rainbow's end
You'll always be at rainbow's end Eternal *** of gold A fairy tale told long ago Forever I've been sold I try so hard but out of reach With each hand would grab hold No need for words so please don't speak Would never let you go But when I give up in defeat The cycle getting old The hill to climb becomes too steep Turn down 'Yellow Brick Road' The Wizard who I wish to meet Told he can take me home I hear the scurrying of feet New shadow is well known But like they say it's "Trick-or-treat" And both will I be shown With me you stand here in the street No longer I'm alone Now found; forever I had seeked But actions had been cloned Reached out but this dream could not keep Like that; I'm turned to stone You laugh and turn off in retreat A call without a phone A diet forced myself to eat These actions had been sewn This game of love again I'm beat And tossed like trash I'm thrown You stole from me just like a cheat This life I live alone No tears to cry but inside weep My head, the space I roam No need to hide; Escape don't seek From now on is my home
