it started out quite different as well
but life is such that i paid it no heed
and continued down the stubborn path
then i woke up on the side of the road
strife flowing through veins of lead
wondering how i ended up in the place
where pain and pleasure are equated
as feelings of life, as feelings of love
living some defunct kind of lie
driving my soul to disastrous fate
and now that i think about it
if i could choose my perfect ending
would it be you
then a laugh escapes my tired lips
and my chafed heart is suddenly warmed
because i remember that one day
you get to wake up, too
