Millions cheer upon hearing his name
Basking in the light of glory and fame
The stage is set for another epic night
Crowd roars upon catching him in sight

His words awaken the most dormant of souls
Music made by a true legend of rock and roll
His guitar strikes the chords of any beating heart
Every one of his songs are genuine works of art

As the lights turn off and the music stops to play
He goes back stage and the happiness fades away
He patiently waits as the night starts to fall
and drowns himself with *** drugs and alcohol

He looks into the mirror as time comes to a stop
He realizes how lonely it is to be at the top
He leans his head on the white wooden wall
Maybe that bullet wasn't such a bad idea after all

We always sit right here on this spot
Talking about each other a lot
You always had the **** sweetest smile
Makes me stay just a little more while

I was always used to you just being there
Always giving me this weird kind of stare
I really never bothered to ask why
I may talk a lot but sometimes I get a bit shy

I've always tried my best to tell you how I feel
but your mere presence was already so surreal
If you only knew how much I loved you from the start
I would've given you what's left of my dying heart

I went back to our spot but you were already gone
You waited all night long but left with someone
Now I have to deal with all of the pain
Losing you now has driven me insane

Here I am lying in my dying days
The entirety of my life in its final phase
Now I realize I should've taken that shot
I should've told you everything right there on our spot

** Always take the shot when you have the chance!

From the billions of the world's faces
A person comes once in a while
He tries to be in your good graces
putting up a fake but promising smile

He fools you about changing your life
but then you're about to know
that he stabbed you at the back with a knife
His true self has started to show

Your heart beats a bit more fast
You feel the person's demented wrath
You wonder when the torture will last
You're in the clutches of a psychopath

Let this be a lesson and guide
about knowing a person too soon
every person has another side
just like the dark side of the moon

I look at you
in your short rustic dress
Staring at a view
you long wished to see
I took a picture of you
and I knew
that I had everything I need
in that photo
Your imperfections
are what makes you perfect
Every rose
has its thorns anyway
and I love
every single one of yours

Still oblivious to reality
our precious little one
yet to face life's cruelty
your world has just begun

I mourn your mind's innocence
yet envy your pure heart
time is of the essence
your life is about to start

I smile at your naive words
you have a lot of things to know
Life isn't just rainbows and birds
something you'll learn as you grow

She waited for this perfect moment
as the crystal stars lighten up the night skies
She ponders on what could've been a happy ending
Mistakes of the past haunt her dreams
Decisions that molded the entirety of herself
Her heart screams desperately for help
but her lips are silent as they fear those who judge
Trapped in a life that she deeply loathes
Anxious of what the future holds
She struggles to climb from a dark abyss full of regrets
Her life moves forward as she hopes for the day of her enlightenment
Just like the stars that she gazed upon throughout the night

I look at this concrete jungle
Skyscrapers racing to touch the heavens above
I can't help but think of all the people inside them
working tirelessly to make ends meet
People who don't necessarily love what they do for a living
Slaves to the corporate machine
Sacrificing the time that's supposed to be for their families
while those at the top of the pyramid laugh at those who toil
The consequences of being cogs of a broken system
