Sigh... I pray for a day in a world where greed don't exceed necessity Even the stars can't lift me now. I swallow the sky and cough out clouds to numb the pain I spat on the earth. I sunk deep into a pool of guilt. I wonder if steep debits would steal my soul for free And leave me crying at work without company Will I crumble to dust or will I fight for me? I look up to the sky inhaling loneliness I can't say how long death would flow through my bones I'm dying inside out- death's always been repressed. I wonder if I'm really content with this solitude Or how much longer I'll embody the pain of many souls.. A gun without a bullet I hold. Sigh... I pray for a day in a world where greed don't exceed necessity. I pray for a life without debt, warm tears and cold sweats. I get lost in my mind when the lights dance- The sky sure looks beautiful right now.

When The Lights Dance
Sigh... I pray for a day in a world where greed don't exceed necessity Even the stars can't lift me now. I swallow the sky and cough out clouds to numb the pain I spat on the earth. I sunk deep into a pool of guilt. I wonder if steep debits would steal my soul for free And leave me crying at work without company Will I crumble to dust or will I fight for me? I look up to the sky inhaling loneliness I can't say how long death would flow through my bones I'm dying inside out- death's always been repressed. I wonder if I'm really content with this solitude Or how much longer I'll embody the pain of many souls.. A gun without a bullet I hold. Sigh... I pray for a day in a world where greed don't exceed necessity. I pray for a life without debt, warm tears and cold sweats. I get lost in my mind when the lights dance- The sky sure looks beautiful right now.
