It's the time of the year for love But thats not what I'm thinking of It's strange the way things go It's a brand new year you know And what have i got to show And when it's said and done, your still long gone All the world lies I suppose, but the thing nobody knows While I'm smiling wide, I'm crying inside Sadness loss and strife, its the story of my life Before you get upset Just let me get this off my chest The seasons never slow So let me rest or let me go And if this is free, i'm here to see What its like to be trapped and your potential kept I guess i was wrong when i wrote this song Im probably never right It's the story of my life So please don't be afraid If i should say im not ok I only mean that i, just don't know why i even try And now its all so clear that the end is near I know that you'll see its the way it had to be So i'll say goodbye, tell my mother not to cry The silver of my knife is the ending of my life Anger loss and strife its the story of my life
