Silk and lace, forget the face,
Your going to fall behind if you can't keep pace.
There might be a chance, if you can make them see,
that there's still hope for you and me.
Try as you might, you're up in the night,
There's no turning back, the past is out of sight.
Still your alone, bare to the bone,
Trying to survive in a world gone cold.
Your a lost soul, with no place to go,
try to run away and you'll miss your goal.
Set yourself apart, give up your heart,
Couldn't seem to win, but you played your part.
No one cared, love life impaired,
Now you want to hide, cause your running scared.
Still your all alone, with no place to go.
Trying to survive in a world gone cold.
You know it really doesn't matter how you see it.
The rules are never written in black and white.
The more you care and the more you try to make it.
The chances are you will still lose the fight.
Word fried mind, not very kind,
Couldn't win the game, if you really tried.
Want to break free, you confided in me,
Cut all your ties, but they wouldn't let you be.
No place to go, and nothing to show,
You gave it all you had, but it finally took its toll.
No one came and no one showed.
You're trying to survive in a world gone cold.
