Secrets and lies! Betrayals and alibis! No one to trust! No where to turn! Don’t put yourself out there unless you want to get burned! Heartache and pain! Thunderstorms with acid rain! It washes away dreams, hopes, all traces! Nothing left just empty spaces! You give it all, and when nothings left... You find you’ve died, and no one is bereft. We start out young so full of hopes and dreams! By the time we are old we know nothing is as it seems! Disappointed, Disillusioned, Heartbroken, Lost! Whats the point? When you add up the cost.. No one who you can feel at home with. No one who understands. No one to guide you. No one to hold your hands. How did you get here from where you started? Peace and hope from you seems long ago parted! Innocence lost and been replaced Cynicism and denial taking up the space.

Burned
Secrets and lies! Betrayals and alibis! No one to trust! No where to turn! Don’t put yourself out there unless you want to get burned! Heartache and pain! Thunderstorms with acid rain!

We start out young so full of hopes and dreams! By the time we are old we know nothing is as it seems! Disappointed, Disillusioned, Heartbroken, Lost! Whats the point? When you add up the cost.. No one who you can feel at home with. No one who understands. No one to guide you. No one to hold your hands. How did you get here from where you started? Peace and hope from you seems long ago parted! Innocence lost and been replaced Cynicism and denial taking up the space.
