Hopes and Dreams

I've lived so many lives, love so many times
Been on top an fallen over and over again
I've seen the best and the worst
That the world has to offer
I've been told that good people prosper
While that bad people never win
But in the years I've lived and learned
Nobody escapes from sin

So much beauty to be experienced in life
Yet we only dwell on what brings us pain
Love is suppose to conquer all
And Life is what you make it
I've been told these things over and over
But I only believe what I see
Bad things happen for no reason
Some say that its destiny

I wasn't always such a pessimist, I had hopes and dreams
Till life kicked me in the face, and rage took hold of me
I didn't always have such negative thoughts, I really did believe
That if you tried and followed your heart anything could be achieved
Then one day I woke up and my life had passed me by
My hopes and dreams were shattered, my life had been denied
I no longer known what else to do,Nothing else to try
The only thing that's left for me, is to give in and die

Goodbye For Now

When I don't have you in my arms
I can feel the emptiness inside
It feels so good when you're around
I thought that you were mine


But now those days are behind us
And our love has gone away
You left and I will take the blame
There is nothing left to say


I guess this is goodbye for now
I can't help but to miss you
We tried so hard to make it work
There is nothing left to do


We had so much in such a short time
Look at all that we've been through
I just wish that before you left me
I could express how I love you 

All My Lies

You took me back an I tried to kick
But it all just turned to lies
Months went by, I even got stabbed
But  you stood right by my side


Everyday I wanted to quit
It turned into a life of lies
I lost control, I couldn't kick
Even though I tried and tried


Then you found out and it got worse
We both started living the lie
Sharing a life that destroyed us both
Our relationship couldn't survive


I made a choice before time ran out
I left so you could have a life
I straighten out and changed my ways
Everyday became a fight


I understand that it's hard for you
To trust me in any way
I need a place in your heart
My love is here to stay
