The end of hope and all it meant to me How can I find the strength to carry on another day Without my pride there's nothing left to say Is the way my life was meant to be?
Too late to say I was wrong Perhaps the weak believe that they are strong I thought that if I tried I'd find a way to earn their trust Yet all I've known and loved has turned to dust It seems there was no way I could belong
The fire that burns within your heart The pain that tears your life apart The rain that falls from broken skies The love I lost beneath the lies And must I face the truth along? Is this the end of all I've known? The years I gave, the tears I cried Why dream of love, when love has died?
I know one day the story will be told And in the end the secrets will be sold And will they look at me and say I should have known the end Perhaps I did but why should I pretend? I only dreamt of love and growing old
The fire that burns within your heart The pain that tears your life apart The rain that falls from broken skies The love I lost beneath the lies And must I face the truth along? Is this the end of all I've known? The years I gave, the tears I cried Why dream of love, when love has died?
