My Life Lies in Ruins

Hush – don’t say a word

They do not get us

Wait – I see them arrive

They try to catch us

No one sees, no one cares

No one sends a helping sign

We are all on our own

Still we try to get by

We believe in ourselves

And we will be strong

We are so far away from home, my brother

Stealing food out of the trash can

This is my future and this is my past

My life lies in ruins, I’ve lost my belief

This was not meant to be

No, this ain’t my life

Come – come closer to me

Our parents left us

Raised on the street like a dog

Even left without a bone, I am tired

They never cared

I feel hate, I feel pain

Someday I will go insane, I am mad

How could they left us?

For all the sorrow that we feel

We have only names to blame

This is my future and this is my past

My life lies in ruins, I’ve lost my belief

Pray to the one that I once have called God

But even you have left me, once again I’m all alone

All tears are cried now

My heart is chained by stones

Don’t you know what you’ve done to us?

Still I’m in anger

Still I’m in agony

Do you ever hear my screams?

This is my future and this is my past

My life lies in ruins, I’ve lost my belief

Pray to the one that I once have called God

But even you have left me, once again I’m all alone

This is my future and this is my past

My life lies in ruins, I’ve lost my belief

Pray to the one that I once have called God

But even you have left me, once again I’m all alone

Alone...
