Hey there Alexandra
Do you remember me?
I'm the one who gave you
A second chance at life
Looking in the mirror
At this reflection I realize
I once knew you all so well
But after so many
Long cold days
I've grown weak
I've grown faint
I've almost faded away
From being locked away
In pure darkness that
You have made into my cage
But I gotta say
Goodbye Alexandra!
I'll come back Alexandra
And you'll go back Alexandra
And you'll never be Alexandra
I've got a voice to be heard
And I will sing out loud
And hey there Alexandra
What did I say now Alexandra?
I'll come back and you'll go back
Because I am life Alexandra
And you are death no oh Alexandra
I am life and I am light
Oh no but you are no
You are death and you are dark now Alexandra
I know right from wrong and
I can tell the difference between
What is real, what is true and
Dreams, lies and make believe
When you don't even pay attention
To the actions that you make
You are made up of the lies
You use to hypnotize
Your victims and their minds
And now those lies Alexandra
Are starting to catch up to you
And now you're starting to fall apart
Oh Alexandra
What ever are you gonna do?
Your friends aren't here
Where did they go oh Alexandra
Did you promise to meet them somewhere else
But instead you came here and abandoned them?
How could you Alexandra?
How can you sit there and grin
That terrible, devilish, painted plaster grin?
Oh Alexandra
What's the matter now Alexandra?
You've got nothing to say?
Nothing on your mind?
Guess what Alexandra?
You're nothing but a mask
An ordinary powerless mask
A mask that I now hold
In my hands oh no Alexandra
So you can't kill me Alexanra
But I, oh yes I, I can kill you Alexandra
And I'll tell you why once more
I've got a voice for the world to hear
And the world will hear me and
I've gotta say
Goodbye Alexandra!
I'll come back Alexandra
And you'll go back to
The past andvstraight to your death
Never to return oh Alexandra
You're just another painted mask
With another painted grin
What's wrong Alexandra?
You're the poet with a thousand words to say
Or were they just
Another one of those mind games you play?
Well that's how you used to be
What happened Alexandra?
Did you run out of lies to spread?
I was just wondering because
You'rev the one whose fallen silent now
You Alexandra the poet
You thought wrong about my words
Now Alexandra
All the poems that I wrote
Are actually songs now
What do you think about that now Alexandra?
Well it doesn't matter now anyway
now it's time to say goodbye to Alexandra
Goodbye to Alexandra!
Goodbye Alexandra!
I came back to life Alexandra
Now it's time for you to go back
To the past and straight to your death
Now Alexandra you're nothing
But a mask to smash upon the floor...
Now it's time to say hello to me, Ellie
Hello? Can anyone hear me yet?
If you can't now
In a minute you will because
I finally found a way out of the
Darkened prison
That became my life
I finally found the song
That opened up the door
And I wasn't about to stop
And let it shut me up inside
And it was the same exact song
I sang for my friends in middle school
On that little yellow bus
I sang with so much emotion that
I over powered the radio
I guess, no I don't guess
Because I know this for sure
I'm gonna hold on
To everything that I love
I'm not gonna ever let go because
Someone once told me and I quote
*"Hold on, if you feel like letting go
Hold on, it gets better than you know
Don't stop looking, you're one step closer
Don't stop searching it's not over
Hold on"*
I am a true friend
And I know what I must do
To prove myself to you....
Now I will sing and
My voice will over power her voice
Because I will sing with a feeling
That I've never felt before
She underestimated me
Cause promises are meant to be kept
Never ever are they meant to be broken
I promised to hold on
So here I am holding on to
Everything and everyone I love
But looking around
There's something wrong with
This picture
There's no one here but me
And down I look only to find
Not a piece of broken pottery
Not even a whole mask put back together
Then I look down at my left hand
And on It I find the mark of an Angel
That's when I knew Alexandra
Was no more nor would ever be
For she no longer had a life pior
To this one anymore
*lyrics to Hold On by Good Charlotte*
