a pale reflection absorbed in the mirror as alex gazed
tears bounced off happiness as the contrast hit his face
almost like night and day, lonely as ever, no eva to talk to
no getaway to walk to, left with those feelings so awful
your body comes off you, and your soul is naked and runs
to a place by itself, with nothing at all to ever come to love

if you love it leave it, a statement of ingenious, believe it
has my life fucked worse than a the tip of a pimps penis
it's got me screamin' out desires i never wanted to live
gasping for breath in this ocean, never learning to swim
no where to go but down, the sad clown has lost all hope
he's falling down below the ground, and no one even knows
not that they would care if they did, they didn't notice he lived
the girl he loved cheated on him, and threw back his rib
i feel like i'm floating, but i'm dead up top a body of water
the body is mine, i'm dead inside, so my soul just wanders
he gets lost in this world, like a baby no one to teach him
or hold his hand, and take him to heaven, where dreams live
leaves give, the air a purpose and softly dissolve the hurtin'
and my sunshine is inside me, just blocked by curtains
the real me is here, it just doesn't come out, i'm certain
someday you may see it, and i pray you might forgive
but it's all said and done, happiness is fed in crumbs
at least to me, the low life will soon lay dead in slums
of suburban love, never to awake again, or open his eyes
never experience content, or have to witness demise
not living to die, he's dying to live, the quote was like i said..

ingenious....

this isn't about a girl, i used to love life, now i have to leave it

goodbye...
