| He walked through the neon light
|
| His future’s 'bout to burn
|
| His face was a mask of violence
|
| He’d just reached the bitter end —
|
| That point of no return
|
| There was nothing left to reach
|
| Just traces of sadness
|
| (All the tears remained uncried)
|
| Just echoes of madness
|
| (All his fantasies had died)
|
| He buried his daydreams
|
| (But the nightmares stayed alive)
|
| (Addiction's like a fence)
|
| (That keeps away your second chance)
|
| When the road to freedom ends
|
| Drinks and drugs and all the rest
|
| He walked that one way street
|
| That leads into desperation
|
| And he learned the hardest way
|
| To steal and fight and cheat
|
| There was nothing left to learn
|
| Just traces of sadness
|
| (All the tears remained uncried)
|
| Just echoes of madness
|
| (All his fantasies had died)
|
| He buried his daydreams
|
| (But the nightmares stayed alive)
|
| (Addiction's like a fence)
|
| (That keeps away your second chance)
|
| When the road to freedom ends
|
| Bridge:
|
| Deep down in his soul he found
|
| The words he had to learn:
|
| There is no way to return
|
| Just traces of sadness
|
| (All the tears remained uncried)
|
| Just echoes of madness
|
| (All his fantasies had died)
|
| He buried his daydreams
|
| (But the nightmares stayed alive)
|
| (Addiction's like a fence)
|
| (That keeps away your second chance)
|
| When the road to freedom ends
|
| When the road to freedom ends
|
| (The traces of sadness)
|
| Just traces of sadness
|
| (All the tears remained uncried)
|
| Just echoes of madness
|
| (All his fantasies had died)
|
| He buried his daydreams
|
| (But the nightmares stayed alive)
|
| (Addiction's like a fence)
|
| (That keeps away your second chance)
|
| When the road to freedom ends
|
| When the road to freedom ends |
