Stretched before him, the hushed whisper of a lark
Distancing itself, pulling him towards the dark
Fighting for a disclaimer, a renewed sense of self
Forgetting all the while, how he squandered his wealth
A new body and lips that sting, never a thought of his own device
Searching for that stardom that eludes him, but at what price
Words are mere words, that's it and nothing more
Without the heart to back it up, empty at its core
In its depths of stupidity, mire and lust
Leave a man watching, as his dreams turn to dust
Try as he may, he spews only wrath
No one is to blame, he's created his own path
He speaks of rules, disclaimers and boundaries on words that sting
And yet he knows of no such honor, knows of no such thing
Happiness deceives him, its just out of reach
Trapped inside out, twisted and breach
He wouldn't stop wouldn't listen, put up those fists, fought and fought
The result of a life tossed aside, a life learned a life taught
Not a moments reflection nor a moments pause
Forever and ever suffering the cause
