I've never seen you look like this without a reason. Another promise fallen through. Another season passes by you. I never took the smile away from anybody's face. And that's a desperate way to look for someone who is still a child. In a big country dreams stay with you. Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside. Stay alive, here we go. I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered. But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered. I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert
