Luminesce

Have you ever wished you could just walk away from it all? Close your eyes and let it fade to grey Have you ever known your life was never your own? In a wicked game with no choice to play Oh how naive I was when I thought I could change the world for good Little did I know in the end You can't defeat your fate True nature of man Made me who I am To be the beacon of hope in a cruel world As you shine for them you burn yourself Know they take it all then leave you behind Of all bereft, nothing left Have you ever wished there was a way to cease the decay? Lose them all till there was no one left to betray Have you ever known your soul was the price you will pay? For every soul you save, a piece of yours you lay Oh how naive I was when I thought I could change the world for good Little did I know in the end It was the world that changed me True nature of man Made me who I am To be the beacon of hope in a cruel world As you shine for them you burn yourself Know they take it all and leave you behind Of all bereft, nothing left
