alibi

frankly, friend i just don't care

i find it hard to even dare

to speak a word on such despair

that words cannot explain

 

if fortune, fame, and "freedom" fly

along the devil's alibi

no one that i know knows why;

i really shouldn't stay

 

forever is a long, long time

and life is but a short goodbye

fleeting things are bound to die

they last us but a day

 

a world where love is ever rare

and lust runs all the rivers bare

is anybody even there?

they all have gone away.
