about

About a man that went from the top of the world, to the bottom. Also, living homeless..

lyrics

Here is my life,
With open eyes, and open hearts,
Dying to get out of a hole filled with broken glass and dreams,
No panic buttons around,
Only good luck charms, and thoughts.
Even the old fellow wouldn't trust me,
If my life depended on it,
With lies and secrets too tough to handle,
It soon splurged out of my hands, and out to the people,
I love,
Love,
That's another thing,
It's a disease aiming for the heart,
Knowing that futures will not be what you want,
What you will,
What you are,
So be careful, my mind says,

It's a different world,
Dark and cold everywhere,
But it's better than a life,
Filled with lies and fear,

Escaping the fact that nobody is perfect,
I thought that was who I am,
Who I was,
Who I will never be,
But that doesn't mean you are too,
Even people on the street wouldn't notice you like they notice me,
Even If their life depended on it,
But for me, my life does depend on it,
Look where I am now,
and look where I will be in the future,
Do you see a difference?
No, thats what I thought.
So go back your hotshot world and get out of my crappy life
before it takes over you,
and your family,
Because my sickness is contagious,
Even money can't fix the virus,
Only the addiction,
Which is too far away for me,
This empty cup,
This empty hole,
Those empty hearts,
Passing by me,
Not giving a damn whether I am hurt or sorry,
So enjoy your life.

It's a different world,
Dark and cold everywhere,
But it's better than a life,
Filled with lies and fear,

So yes, my life isn't perfect,
but don't be sorry,
This was who I was going to be in the first place.
Time is a difficult thing,
It plays tricks,
like a magician,
but I'm no magician,
I'm just a guy who wanted to be good,
but soon, everything was better,
and still is better,
always will be better,
So farewell, whoever can hear me.
