[hometext] => My closest friend is going through a really hard time in the army, and I cant talk to him and its killing us both..and i wrote this imagining how he is feeling...prolly like i betrayed him...
[bodytext] => Here I am sitting here all alone Listening to the ringing of the phone No one here to hear the call Only me watching as I fall No one is around to care No one is anywhere I fade away and wonder why No one was here to hear me cry Maybe they just wanted me to leave And when I am gone no one will grieve All because I wasn’t the same All because I wouldn’t play the game I didn’t support their stupid war I decided to take another door And because I did I am now alone Fading into a world unknown But that’s okay if love deserves death Then go ahead take my last breath I am not ashamed of that path I chose My independence certainly shows I see everyone looking at me standing tall How one can make a hundred seem so small All it takes is one person to change the path Just to stand up and face the world’s wrath In the end it is all worth the pain Knowing you’re the reason the evil was slain That you were the one that took the stand That you alone defied the command I tell myself that as I completely fade If only someone else would have been at my aid.
