Analysis of Untilted#87
Jeremy Beacham 1979 (Tesax)
Three different faces
The same cases
Left alone as if I was dead
The memories of those three constantly replay in my mind.
Loyalty was a game to play, until it got bored.
The smiles and tears of clown are just ignored
Why me?
I wanted to give is the very best of me
What was wrong can never be right
Living in a dark day and a even a darker night.
What these three promised, they weren't willing to give
But so quick to take, my time, my heart, and my will to live.
