but what we have is everything

You ask me for dinner, 

You ask me for life, 

You ask me for help,

Every single night. 

 

You ask me for money, 

You know we don't have, 

You ask me for everything, 

As if I own the world on my back. 

 

You ask me for hours, 

You ask me to come home, 

You know I have to work, 

Just for the things that we own. 

 

I don't have everything, 

I don't own the best stuff,

But we have what they don't, 

We have what really counts

We have love, no matter what.

  • until the end

    right now we're together, 

    but soon we'll be split apart. 

    by the forces of evil, 

    by betrayers and people who stay. 

     

    it's been a long journey,

    of friendships and heartbreak,

  • white walls

    I stare at my ceiling,

    Blank, white, boring. 

    The rain is pouring, 

    Loud, hard, sad. 

     

    The paint is peeling, 

    Cracks upon cracks, 

    The rain is still pouring, 

  • luck

    never tempt fate, 

    it'll get you nowhere. 

    i've spent hours, 

    trying to get rid of my destiny. 

    i'm tired of pretending 

    that it's not right there,
