When Love Turns To Fear

When love turns to fear And joy turns to tears Where do you go When happiness fades And loneliness reigns Where do you go Do you go to that place Where your world’s full of hate Where you hide from the pain that’s inside Do you go to that place The brink of hell’s gate Drunk and stoned out of your mind Do you go in frustration In hope of escaping That which has shattered your world Do you go in confusion A state of delusion Living a life that’s surreal Do you go there knowing The road you are following Leads only to anguish and pain Do you go there knowing The fate once befallen Will be yours to bare yet again When joy turns to sorrow And you dread each tomorrow Where do you go
