The Return of Lila

This situation, same old game,
The stars are out of reach again.
Negotiations, pleading with Father Time,
I fell in love but I couldn't fall in line.

Loss of innocence, pray, the return of Lila,
3am on my bedroom floor.
Embracing lonliness, questioning the reasons,
Wonder if I could do anymore.

Search for the means, afraid to dream,
Excentuates cruel reality, pain to page, told on stage.
The force is too great, resigned to fate,
Sing my life, but is this me, destroyed so willfully?

Cold adversity, we're forced to walk our seperate paths.
Obvious to see I'm just a boy with a photograph.
I never gave in, Temptation couldn't win me from you.
Your courage shows the way, I slept through my alarm on Judgement Day.

From the womb to the tomb, dramatize, traumatize,
Defeated by the great divide.
We seperate, I isolate.
Your gone....

Tonight, take flight, my fantasy.
I make the same old mistakes, my legacy.
Run little child, in peril tonight,
Lila's return, my guiding light.
