The Cost
Why run
Why fight
Hide in the dark
Ignore the light
Find shelter
Helter skelter
Embrace the pain
Let tears reign
Cruel sin
Don't give in
Sour grin
Breathe in
Don't let greed
Rule your need
Don't care
Won't share
Hold yourself
Clutch your wealth
Can't get near
You're full of fear
Cover your heart
And keep apart
Now you're lost
That's the cost
