best skatepunk of all time. forever in my heart
He used to be kind of a happy guy
Then one day he said goodbye
To the person he used to be
And grew wings to set himself free
He flew away from all of us
Away from what he once was
A charade of phony smiles
He's now a case in the X-Files
And the chain around his neck is a reminder: a symbol of liberty
How free he once was in our society
He spends the day leaving his white mark on the statues of great men
'Cause he remembers how he used to hate them
He flies by outside my window
There are not many of his kind
He flies by outside my window
He's the hero of our time
He had a dream about this world
He had a dream about this world
And the chain around his neck is a reminder: a symbol of liberty
How free he once was in our society
He spends the day leaving his white mark on the statues of great men
'Cause he remembers how he used to hate them
He flies by outside my window
There are not many of his kind
He flies by outside my window
He's the hero of our time
It was on the tip of her tongue
But she did not say a word
Why did she sometimes take shit
That she did not deserve?
She wore a smile on her face as a disguise
To hide the tears in her eyes
And she just let the time go by
She´d turn away
So that no one could see her sad
Where had the love gone that they once had?
She only cried when she was alone
When her husband and the children were not home
And she just let the years go by
But one day she had enough
Packed her things
Went out the door
I've seen the pictures of when she was young, of the happy girl she was before
She met the man of her dreams
Fell in love and suddenly
She found herself in a situation
She thought she'd never be
But I
I know that shes better off today
All that time
All those years
So little joy
And too many tears
All the sacrifice
That she had made for him
All the things she'd given up
Just to please that man
But now that she is on her own
She can smile again
Just like the happy girl
That she once was
She left a note for her husband at the phone
It said:
I hate your soul and I'm leaving on my own
