I was once told that dreams could come true
I was once told that my wishes would come true
I was once told everything would be fine
But here I stand
In a world of war and sorrow
Filled with sadness I walk alone in the darkness
I search for a little light
A little hope
Some faith
But most of all the truth
I found the light, but feared it
I found hope, but let it leave
I found the truth, but ran away from it
I was told my dreams would come true
But they didn't
I was told my wishes would come true
But they didn't
I was told everything would be okay
But it wasn't
I live in a world of lies
I wanted the truth
But was too scared of it
So I listened to the lies
So I live in a world of lies
