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
