I search for trouble.
And I'll search for pain.
Beneath the dirt.
Beneath the rubble. 
All in vain.
To no one shall I flirt.

I search for a childhood.
And I'll search for an adult.
Wishing I wanted this.
Wishing I would. 
But I take all the fault.
No one shall I kiss.

I search for solitude.
And I'll search for the feeling of being alone.
Beneath my hate.
Beneath my attitude.
Not picking up the phone.
Leaving my love up to fate.
