heartless

why do you have to be so heartless?

you used to be as free as the wind

now you can't conceive of justice

in this hopeless mess you're in

when did you stop believing?

why do you let life hold you down?

all of your friends take turns in leaving

they just can't take you hanging around

all of your hope has been taken

by circumstances beyond your control

you think it's over but you're mistaken

you still have goodness in your soul

take a moment to search your conscience

you'd be surprised by what's inside

I know you fear the consequences

you can look around but you cannot hide

          where are you going?

          no one can tell you

          you turn the corner 

          at the strangest times

          now you know that

          no one can help you

          you'll have to pay 

          for committing the crime

why do you have to be so heartless?

I know you're afraid to cry out loud

it's so damn hard to be apart, yes,

always somewhere you're not allowed

only you can stop the madness

only you can rearrange

the missing pieces that turn to sadness

you've still got time to change

you've still got time to change

why do you have to be so heartless?

why do you have to be so heartless?
