Sometimes Passions Can Be Dangerous
  It almost seems magical
  How easily someone can fall in love with a hobby or a person
  And make that the one thing that gets their life seemingly easier
  The thing that drives their life; the reason someone wakes up in the morning
  What makes them smile before they go to rest their head in the moonlight
  And I watched you fall in love with your passion
  I watched it not only fill your eyes but your hope and imagination
  I watched it fill you up
  You drank it in
  Until the day it became distructive
  You let it consume every part of you; your weekends, your house, your family
  You let it sep into places where passion should be replaced with pure love and joy
  You let it tear you apart and seperate you from 16 years of a person
  You let it build a home and you let it fester
  You took a shack and built a mansion
  Your mansion became exclusive and you let nothing but your passion inside
  You left me out in the cold while your passion kept you warm
  And your passion became deadly to the rest of us
  It was dangerous, don't you see?
