15 minutes

A world full of pretenders
And starlets yet to come
I wouldn’t ask for wonders
I have yet to hear of some

The nightmares cry out our eyes
Into a world of fear
But I’d rather face a nightmare
Then spend another moment here

We used to laugh about them
Then our laughter met an end
But can we still be together
Even just as friends?

The cameras have effects on us
Our state of mind is still
I didn’t mean to leave you behind
I never ever will

I’m left here, I am what I hate
A hypocrite and traitor
I think of you and want to die
Maybe later

Soon I’ll be disappearing
Close to the gates of Hell
And no one will be there to witness
No one will ever tell

And when all of this is over
Our fights will come to an end
Can we still be together
Even just as friends?
