Life isn't fair
I learned this a long time ago
But what I didn't know
Was that as you grow old
You can trust what you're told
Less and less
Because people lie
And cheat
And steal
Only half of what they say
might be real
Look away for a second..
They've stolen your heart
And ran away

Crunches and pops
Silence is stopped
Needle finds a groove
Beat begins to boom
Black plastic spews
Lyrics that fill the room
And in this moment
*Nothing else matters
Joy is found in raw music, played through vinyl records.

Once upon a yesterday
Things were easier than you'd expect
One thing lead to another
Now you mind is filled with regret
A loop that meant forever
Wasn't broken
But thrown away
Three symbols of love and affection
Walk back and forth, day by day
From a broken marriage
Comes not a broken home
Instead a bitter child
Who resents
What she'll never know

— The End —
