Putting A Price On Life

when the world outside is crumbling
and i want you to believe in me
when everyday just leads to nowhere
and i want you to agree with me
you never will...

in the shadows of the night
you're protected from the light

i will write new chapters in my life
to erase those thoughts of doubt
i will fight till you finally acknowledge me
even if it takes me down

are you there?
do you feel me slipping away from the safety of last year?
do you care?
that you're losing the life you made...
so take it away

it happens all the time
innocence is lost
and im sorry for the nights i lied
so go ahead and try
to take away my hopes and dreams
hope you know its killing me inside
but i wont run and hide this time, goodbye.
