Fires gonna Burn
Look behind the smile,
look behind the lies,
Look behind the perfect picture,
And see the real disguise.
You're so hedged with lies,
you're so hedged with pain.
You are suffering slowly
In their disdain.
But if you cry once more,
you may just lose.
So let me just say,
you have to live this ruse.
No more excuses,
Their tired of your pain.
Its sick to see you lose this game.
So the bigger picture is clear,
The bigger picture is at stake,
So take this chance now
and make it your break.
You want to succeed in life,
you want to make a name,
But kid theirs a lot of hurt in the world today.
Forget the pretty ideals,
forget the pretty flames.
You know the fires gonna burn,
And make you ash today.
