...THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...) THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...) THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...) THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE...
LAYLA'S   WORLD

BEING IRRELEVANT BITS AND RELEVANT PIECES OF LETTERS FROM LAYLA,
WHO DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT YOU THINK UNLESS YOU'RE REAL AND COOOL


you may think you know how it feels to be alone
but have you ever really faced the world on your own
without family, without a friend
nobody upon whom you can depend
with no one you can call
nobody at all
no one to notice if your life would end

when you're alone
going down to defeat
and you can't even shower
living on the street

on the streets
feel the absent passions
people can be so indescreet

on the streets
hear the cold reactions
of the eyes and the concrete

empty echos... telling you how alone you are
every hunger... burns as if I swallowed a star
without anyone who really cares
nobody who really shares
it's like an endless fall
going nowhere at all
the only things around you are your fears

when you're alone
going down to defeat
and you can't even shower
living on the street

on the streets
feel the absent passions
people can be so indescreet

on the streets
hear the cold reactions
of the eyes... and the concrete

it absorbs hope
it swallows faith
it consumes whatever you believe
face down you can smell the pain
of being discarded by society
it is despair
it doesn't care
it takes away all you might receive
laying there at night you feel
nothing but concrete
nothing but the street

on the streets
feel the absent passions
people can be so indescreet

on the streets
hear the cold reactions
of the eyes... and the concrete

when you're alone
going down to defeat
and you can't even shower
living on the street

on the streets
feel the absent passions
people can be so indescreet

on the streets
hear the cold reactions
of the eyes... and the concrete



(On The) Streets
The Concrete
