So much sadness in such a small place
So many people crying, so many a sad face
So many children lonely
So many waiting for their one and only
So many broken hearts, to much to count
So many sad looks, so many a sad sound

I can't take the world like this
There is to much pain to be cured by one kiss
How can I help them when I can't help myself?
I put on a happy mask and put my sorrow on a shelf
My lonely soul seeks a way out of the sadness
One happy thought soon dies but I'm fighting for happiness
It's a fight I have long ago lost
i breath only because I must
My muscles need the air to live on
But inside I have died and I'm allready gone

So many masks in such a small place
so many tears on one child's face
So many lies about so many thoughts
So many sighes about so many lost loves
So many people dying before their time
So many unanwsered prayers that time could rewind

I can't take the world
Not in this state of mind
Long ago did my soul pass away
Desperate in my search for a life without sadness
