I never asked
To be the one to see it through
And I never
Expected this from you
This shoulder to cry on
Became a life to leach on
And the blood's run dry
With parched lips
Still screaming, "stay true"
That's when the pride died
The honor from an ill spoken word
Can prove stronger than a thousand kind
As long as it'sthe wittiest line
And this time you'll stand alone
Preach values like
They really ring true
And forget the details as soon as
The next trend comes through
Then the morals vanished
At the drop of a pin
Along with any
Respect built 'til then
And the blood's run dry
With parched lips
Still screaming, "stay true"
