It's always the same,
Everyone playing the game.In the beginning, there was nothing to fear.
"Its all just trial and error, my dear."You didn't know what to expect.
But you jump into it like "What the heck?"Now that youve caught a sliver,
All you do is shiver.And that is just a sample.
You think youre in love,
Flying so beautifully like a Dove.You think you're on cloud nine,
And everything's just fine.You analyze your feelings, thinking theyre real.
Opening your heart for them to steal.Steal they must, you want them to.
And steal they will, its what they do.But that is just a sample.
Now here you are, singing away,
Talking to them all day."Run away with me, cant you see?
You and me, its our destiny!"Now its not just trial and error.
The future is filled with terror.You know what you seek, and you know what to keep,
But you can't stop this constant leak.Was it just a sample?
Sure it was, it wasn't real.
You don't know what to feel.But now its time to run and hide,
And put all your fear aside.One last silent prayer, as you hold that tiny pill,
Hoping for a silent kill.You thought you could handle, as you lit the candle
But that is just a sample.
