I used to know a boy
Who had a dream of a better world...

A dozen white roses
for love and purity...

I turn and look away from you
as the awkward silence grows...

Sitting alone in this hell
Listening to people pass...

Looking back on the tears
and the secrets we shared...

While fighting for his country, he lost an arm
And was suddenly afraid...

This love that i have
was all in my blood...

To all who feel that hope is gone,
Listen to me...

We talked when we were younger
though i never thought it would happen...

I laughed at angels crying
enjoyed the sounds of people screaming in pain...

Feels like the weight of the world
Is on my shoulders...

I always wanted to be alone
Never wanted anyone around...
