You'll Go On

(Verse 1)
I look and wonder if they think the same?
These sidewalks of concrete and hate are overflowed with bliss.
High up in the walls a reference beckons to be seen.
Surely that's something no one can miss.

And I wonder if they even see it the same?
A breath of fresh air or a parking garage with no place to be.
Cleverly hidden inside what you can call respectable.
I don't think that this is the place for me.

But what if they've got it wrong again?
Waiting in the crossfire for a sign of happiness, love or joy.
Frozen in a perfect suit and tie on display.
For one with wealth he can find an expensive toy.

(Chorus)
I don't want to be left here alone.
This place is far too scary on its own.
Can they even hear me over the street?
I don't want to be left here alone.

(Verse 2)
You'll bet and sit for all that you want?
Pathetic can't describe what my eyes are telling me right now.
Sitting in the corner with a view of strangers.
I think that everyone watching deserves a bow.

And you'll ask yourself "did I let go?"
These marble lies and smooth streaked clothes don't hide you.
Doomsday is different for almost everyone.
Just make sure you don't count your days too few.

And you act like it didn't happen?
We'll sit and watch the sun fly and the night come into place.
It's turned around and upside down.
I can't even keep my upset, unsteady pace.

(Chorus)
I don't want to be left here alone.
This place is far too scary on its own.
Can they even hear me over the street?
I don't want to be left here alone.

(Post-Chorus)
But you don't know what comes after this.
You don't want to go home...

(Bridge)
So I'll,
say,
don't let the world turn its head.
When,
you're,
almost out of bed.
It's,
hard,
to look towards dawn.
But I,
will,
say,
that life goes on.
I,
will,
say,
that life goes on.

That life goes on.

That life will go on.

that was pretty good

It is more than pretty good. I love the message conveyed in this. The rhyme scheme takes you along and the lines themselves bring you in. This is a wonderful work you have done here.
