What do u do when 1 turns to 4 an with every one of them u were thrown out the door. Or a lie turns true an cuts out the fun an then theres no room for even the 1. so what is that when u walk home alone in the rain an all the memories an dreams down the drain. Safe at home with no one to say good nite. Nothing to gain give up the fight. weep as the door slowly closes an let your broken heart rest on a bed of roses.
