New Start
Shadows on the walls
Dark momories fill these halls
Here sits a boy with disregard for human laws
A boy who was made to be alone
He does so much better on his own
The ocean is the only place he feels at home
His rules are those of his heart
But his heart is dark because it was torn apart
He was emotionaly hurt right from the start
Of his first relationship he learned
Cupid doen't shoot love arrows but poison darts
But he is smart enough to know it wasn't ment to be
And they only way he is consouled is by the sea
He gets up and gets a box of matches
Strikes a match and watches the fire
The flames shoot higher and higher
The house burns to the ground
The boy sees nothing but freedom all around
As the house went down the pain left his heart
He truns and smiles because he knows he has a fresh new start
