Victims And Volunteers

Sometimes you like to be the victim

Sometimes you play the volunteer

Tonight we play our rolls, it always ends the same

Without control there's only fear

You love to bring the chaos in our lives

Still it took the world to say goodbye

So go your way

And someday I'll go mine

I hope you find that something better

In a world that's so unkind

It's a shame that the life we shared

Is the one we left behind

I recognize the chaos in our lives

That's why it nearly killed me to say goodbye

Dry off your tears and just don't look behind

Are you someone new

Do you think of me the way I think of you?

Can you see the game?

We hurt each other,

Nothing's ever going to be the same

I know I let you know

But that's not the way the truth

Is supposed to sound

And now you're on your own

Does it serve us better to be left here

All alone?
