The Cost

Why run Why fight Hide in the dark Ignore the light Find shelter Helter skelter Embrace the pain Let tears reign Cruel sin Don't give in Sour grin Breathe in Don't let greed Rule your need Don't care Won't share Hold yourself Clutch your wealth Can't get near You're full of fear Cover your heart And keep apart Now you're lost That's the cost
