Protest Song #00
by Give Up the Ghost· from Year One
you'll never see this face again i'm out sleeping with the stars in the shallow end "life" (love) is just a word I don't want to say I don't care if tomorrow is a new day I'll write this song again how about the one who thought life wasn't his friend? Why would he want the words to be shared? When no one listens and no one cares I'd skip this fucking song if you don't want to know what's fucking wrong did you hear my acceptance speech? "I quit, I quit, I quit..." you don't want to hear why I can't quite talk you don't want to hear what makes my heart stop you wrote my requiem with no words, no life... ...just desperation there's no truth like the lie I live I'm a sinking ship drowning by a burning bridge there's no cure for a "dreamer's disease" I'm a boat of false hope lost at sea today, tonight, tomorrow I'm truly by myself you say those words but what do they mean? Nothing life is just a word that I won't say life is just a word that I'll never know life is just a game that I won't play love is just a lie that I won't believe
