The Lonely Side of Town...

I'm walking alone
with no direction
And since you packed up everything that you own
There's no hurry.

I'm walking alone,
Guess I'm gonna take the long way home
And I never should've tried to explain
I'm not sorry for holding you back.

Sorry for holding you back
As I meant what I said
And I figured you wouldn't react
And you waited so long
For the things that belong to you
Know that I don't have
A leg left to stand on
But winning you back
When the chips are all stacked
Up against me is what I do best.

I'm walking alone
Guess I'm gonna take the long way home
And I'll stop by to say hello
Pretend I really had to go

And all the final things
That money brings
Are yours to care for then
It's so lonely on the other side of town.

Hope?

As the light at the end of the tunnel begins to flicker,
And the you feel all sad and bitter;
Feeling like no one's there to hold your hand,
Like having only one pair of footprints in the sand.

The loss of hope is a bitter pain,
especially after all your dreams have been lain...
While everyone falters moving farther away
Like the sun gone on a clear morning day.

Losing hope,
Feeling like a dope;
Forgetting why
A dream, supposedly a reality may die.

When our time is up,
Will we just give up?
Putting all our trials past,
And get away from here fast.

Standing on the rooftops,
Waiting till the bomb drops,
Never gonna regret,
Watching every sunset,

Listening to every heartbeat
This is something we're going to beat.
We will make a mark,
We'll hit this ball out of the park.
