Its so complicated
Ever since i was born
Everybody lives to fight against
Just to hope one day we win
...

All i pined for was a shoulder to lean on
All i knelt for was a friend to count on
Was i scraping the bottom of the barrel?
We got closer and how i lost in your world
...

She knew it was time
Time to hold a new tittle
She always prayed for this day
That she could scream from pain
...

On the front porch, relaxing old man in a rocking chair
I apperceive its finally dusk
Twilight drops her curtains down,
To embrace a beautiful constellation of stars
...

At 25 on knees,
A wish you conformed, holding a ring
Time never stands still
No other I'd rather be with
...

A ring upon the finger, A smile for all to see, A shared name,
A house adorned with roses, And bars no one can see.

The walls are painted golden,
...
