|
He always tried to seize the day |
|
Now he let it slip away |
|
Shining sun or falling rain |
|
Doesn't matter anymore |
|
Another boring day begins |
|
Already knows how it will end |
|
And now he's losing faith in you |
|
You used to guide him |
|
You showed the way the he should follow |
|
He built a world upon your promise |
|
He would be saved |
|
He's all alone, no one to hold |
|
When the nights are long and cold |
|
He prayed to you for some relief |
|
For some reward for his belief |
|
He tried so hard to do it right |
|
Saw the world in black and white |
|
But now it's fading into grey |
|
He feel temptation |
|
He's never had a night of passion |
|
Or numbed his mind with the firewater |
|
Never felt alive |
|
Oh he's lost again |
|
Now the world will see |
|
Another soul led astray |
|
Another destiny thrown away |
|
The one way ticket in his trembling hand |
|
Is the testimony to the tragedy |
|
Was he never meant to be |
|
never meant to be |
|
He boarded the plane towards the end |
|
A grave among the neon lights |
|
Realized his wildest dreams |
|
In a drunken, hazy night |
|
He sold his life and the money made |
|
Spent it all on the last crusade |
|
His celebration of the end |
|
The one's who found him |
|
Said he smiled and looked so peaceful |
|
And in his hand he held a letter |
|
It said... "No one came" |
|
I hope you're happy in the world beyond |
|
That you find what you need |
|
That you get what you want |
|
The world has lost again |
|
And no one will see |
|
Another soul led astray |
|
Another destiny thrown away |
|
The final letter in his lifeless hand |
|
Is the testimony to the tragedy |
|
Was he never meant to be?? |
