He walked through the neon night
His future's 'bout to burn
His face- was a mask of violence
He'd just reached the bitter end-
That point of no return
Refraine
Just traces of sadness
All the tears remained uncried
Just echoes of madness
All his fantasies had died
He buried his daydreams
But the nightmares stayed alive
Addiction's like a fence
That keeps away your sencond chance
When the road to freedom ends!
Drinks and drugs and all the rest
He walked that one way street
That leads into desperation
And he learned the hardest way
To steal and fight and cheat
There was nothing left to learn
Refraine
Just traces of sadness
All the tears remained uncried
Just echoes of madness
All his fantasies had died
He buried his daydreams
But the nightmares stayed alive
Addiction's like a fence
That keeps away your sencond chance
When the road to freedom ends!
Deep down in his soul he found
The words he had to learn:
There is no way to return!
2xRefrain
