Bound in chains of sun swept fire,
Passion, longing, and a hearts desire
He wanted her, she didn't feel the same,
His insecurities fell to blame,
...
How can you shoot for the stars if the sky is the limit?
Why should I accept my flaws if I'm in it to win it?
They tell me I'm too old to laugh and play, and too young to understand
Some call me a kid and others say I'm a fine young man
...
I am the invisible man,
Wandering about with no purpose or plan,
Unspoken to, unnoticed, and never quite seen,
I walk the edges of reality like a vivid dream,
...
I am nothing, but an obsolete freak
Leading a life so petty and meek
I wander about, in my own little hell
Formed of the smiles of those doing well
...
It gets lonely here in paradise
Surrounded by stars, high above city lights
My spirit's as high as anyone could lift
As I lay on my cloud peacefully adrift
...
I pity the darkness out there all alone.
An outcast, unwanted, with no light to be shone
Everyone always trying to escape or run away
does the darkness get lonely when no one will stay?
...
In a city or murderers, crooks, and thieves
Where chivalry and honor were long past beliefs,
a man walked alone
with an expression of stone.
...
We were as perfect as perfect could be,
A near flawless song of harmony
On the outside a joy to behold,
However the whole story wasn't quite told
...
One day a man went walking down a grimy city street,
Seeing only the dark in everyone he'd meet
An all too common life style over-worked and stressed
A classic cynic who didn't see light or anything as blessed
...
I could make you cry with no more than a few words
I could turn my cheek at your suffering and hurt
I read you and see you for who you are
You can run or hide but you won't get far
...
