Whispers From the Dark Side

Turn it up on your radio sweetheart 
And scream loudly to the lyrics

'Cause no one's coming for a start 
And nothing new ain't gonna fix it

Change ain't gonna happen 
If you don't change your mind

So stop your foot from tappin'
And leave all hope behind

Love is for the ignorant 
And they die in misery

So take this instant as a hint
And only care for thee

Don't expect because you'll be disappointed
Since people only act like they care

When you got something to give
Then they'll be there

But you don't want friends like that 
You don't deserve to be hurt

So turn around and swing that bat 
And kick your feet up in the dirt

You'll always be alone 
That's how it's meant to be 

So grow yourself a backbone 
And forget  everybody

Just take and take as you want
And never ever give

You yourself are on this hunt
And YOU must fight to live
