At the times of distortion where can you go
There is no one out there for you - or is it really so

If you look far enough then can you see the light
Light that's blinking slowly from the dark of the night

Can you hear the echoes of the voice of a friend
Or is it just an echo of the most hellish fiend

Paradise so far away, hell is really close
Or is it so that you can't see farther than your nose

Everything's ruined, twisted and decayed
In your mind the piece is constantly delayed

If you could raise and share the palm of your hand
Then possibly I could help you to understand

The strength of a friendship that cannot be wiped away
The comfort of relationship that is here to stay

We often make decisions that lead us wrong
Yet it does not mean that they have to be lifelong

I really would like to see a smile on your lips
The movement caused by laughter moving your hips

But you just seem to wear that same old mask
That keeps you from completing even a simple task

Life just keeps on leading you to a point of no return
I hope the truth would not be that you can't never learn

If the sun is shining the clouds are above your head
I wish that I won't wake up to only hear youre dead

With all these words I greet you - raise your head and hear
Your sad ways give me something - a bitter tear
