I had something special Once upon a time I held her dear Once upon a time I made us one Once upon a time And then the fight begun Rough roads Rocky tumbles The split began with a tear and one by one The inches divided Inches, to miles, to years Now we pretend to be tender We treat each other with care But in the back of my mind The sirens still blare They scream away the warnings I should have heeded long ago No, I know more Now then before And I use my knowledge so clear You're all filled up with God knows what You wanna dump it out, just to pick it back up A pack rat of emotion A dealer of brokens Be it hearts Be it promises Be it ***** You don't care As long as you get to be heard All to make it one way So you can yearn for the alternative Promising to make it come But you know it's not true Change the world The one in your head And demand the rest to do the same When reality strikes And you know you're not right Complain Complain Complain A fictional vision Of the world you live in What you thought it would be Disillusionment ***** big.

Disillusionment ***** big.
