Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


I pick up the phone and dial your number,
I hear a voice, it's not yours, it's the operator.
Telling me this number is out of service,
And I simply can't deal with this.
It's been far too long since we last spoke,
If I knew where you were I'd leave a note.
I would have understood if you would have just told me,
That all you wanted was to be free.
One day you decided to quickly disappear,
Never looked back, not a single tear.
To this day, I wish you would have stuck around,
Then maybe I wouldn't always feel so down.
I'm constantly reminded that I didn't speak up,
I could have screamed and it could have been enough.
To keep you in my arms; that's where you belong,
Before I could tell you, you said, "So long."
On that horrific day I was consumed by my only fear;
I watched you fade and disappear.
It's like you never existed, not even a memory,
Do you ever wonder about the pain you've caused me?
I ask around but nobody has heard of you,
I show them a picture but they still have no clue.
Where did you go, and for how long?
I can't get used to the fact that you're gone.
I used to stay up late, but now I go to bed early,
No point in being awake if you're not here with me.
One day you decided to quickly disappear,
Never looked back, not a single tear.
To this day, I wish you would have stuck around,
Then maybe I wouldn't always feel so down.
I'm constantly reminded that I didn't speak up,
I could have screamed and it could have been enough.
To keep you in my arms; that's where you belong,
Before I could tell you, you said, "So long."
On that horrific day I was consumed by my only fear;
I watched you fade and disappear.
I pick up the phone and dial your number,
I hear a voice, it's not yours, it's the operator.
Telling me this number is out of service...
One day you decided to quickly disappear,
Never looked back, not a single tear.
To this day, I wish you would have stuck around,
Then maybe I wouldn't always feel so down.
I'm constantly reminded that I didn't speak up,
I could have screamed and it could have been enough.
To keep you in my arms; that's where you belong,
Before I could tell you, you said, "So long."
On that horrific day I was consumed by my only fear;
I watched you fade and disappear...
