Burning Down

a place that i could go to
 no longer welcomes me
 outcasted and rejected
 i thought that it was different
 now i know that isn't true
 you wear it on your sleeve,
 i wear it in my heart
 you were so quick to finish
 i have yet to start
 something far too perfect
 is never what it seems
 the reality i wanted
 lives only in my dreams
 it's so sad that your life
 revolves around a fad
 you're burning down your future while you're building up your past
 THE UNITY THEY SOLD TO ME WAS AN UGLY FUCKING LIE
 THEY'VE CAST ME OUT AND I'VE SEEN THE TRUTH
 'cause I OPENED UP MY EYES
 a fantasy i lived in
 has now crashed into the ground
 now nothing looks the same
 it's all been turned around
 i thought that i could life it and change the way things are
 but i lived that way for years
 and nothing's changed so far
 it took so long to build it
 this home i thought i'd found
 but where there's smoke there's fire
 and now it's burning down
