When everything in the world revolved around a dream
Nothing else has importance
Or so it seems
To have a voice without a sound
Is to have a melody with no steady ground
So goals and dreams are ripped away
Priceless gold fades to grey
Dedication and pain are all too same
And my voice is gone
Leaving me ashamed
