Burning Down
(album: 17 Reasons...)
A place that I could go to, no longer welcomes me, outcasted and rejected, I never thought I´d leave. No longer is it sacred, it´s tainted through and through, I thought that it was differen, now I know that isn´t true... You wear on your sleeve, I wear it in my heart, you were so quick to finish, I have yet to start... Something far to perfect, is never what it seems, the reality I wanted, lives only in my dreams. It´s so sad that your life revolves around a fad, you´re burning down your future while you build up your past... The unity they sold to me, was an ugly f*cking lie. They´ve cast me out, and I´ve seen the truth ´cos I opened my eyes... A fatasty I lived in has now crashed back to the ground, now nothing looks the same, it´s all been turned around. I thought that I could live it and change the was things are, but I lived that way for years, and nothing´s changed so far. It took so long to build it, this home I thought I´d found, but where there´s smoke there´s fire, and now it´s burning down.
