[hometext] => Saying goodbye to the way things used to be.
[bodytext] => You used to be beautiful. With strawberry scented smiles Blueberries dying your hair You could defeat the world. Curling around inside your mind Was doubt of the love the world would give To someone such as you. The tears falling from your screams Were not around back then. They were kept away from later times. Can you see how much you did? You could change the life of a couch. However, you never knew what you were doing. Hair a mess and shirt all wet You slid down the hill on a garbage lid. I followed, knowing only good could come. But take a look at yourself now Strung up, used up and tied up To a life, you never asked for. Beaten down and stepped upon You sink into the walls around you. They take, take, and never give back. Nevertheless, you used to be beautiful. Oh yes you used to be beautiful. Now all used up and wasted away...
