The rose I gave to you
Will one day wither away
But the love behind the thought
I sware will never fade
...

Forgive me for thinking that you could ever do any wrong
My heart knows that I shouldn't quick to anger
But the yen to my yang is furious inside
Within me burns a rage of hurt hate and anger and despair
...

Once upon a magical dream
We walked both hand in hand
On the mystic shores of romance
We wrote love notes in the sand
...

If I could only see myself
Looking through your eyes
Then maybe I could understand
How you felt inside
...

From the darkness arise the screams
Of A lonely puppet with broken dreams
On the stage of life he will preform no more
His heart is empty his soul is sore
...

For this is the future
The past is left behind
The present is the future
On the edge of time
...

I am only a fool
Trying to catch a dream
I danced into a nightmare
Awakened by my screams
...

The still frame images
Are like snapshots inside my head
Always there reminding me of the pain
A pain that no amount of alcohol will suppress
...
