Subsitution

Verse 1- He stepped out the front door and never again did it open, I know I'm dying when everyday I'm crying.  He said it all in one word, I knew what he meant.  I knew I was wrong, and it never left, those smiles, those words are like glue, stuck to my deathbed.

Chorus- Screaming, calling, get me the hell out of here, can't take it, can't stand it, its all just a subsitution for me, for life.

Verse 2- We tried to turn a new leaf over, but the rain kept falling, the wind kept whirling, and she kept twirling.  We couldn't stop, we couldn't wait, we all got up to dance.

Chorus

Verse 3- Smiling through your bright lights of lessened inspiration, the pearl doesn't work, and the people die, the tears flow as the blade slits the fresh flesh upon my heavy heart.

Chorus
