A.L.E.X.
This pop ballad is about meeting an acquaintance after a long time, who came into drugs. Seeing how life happens when you take the wrong decision makes you contemplate about the choices given. This song is part of my album “Going My Way”.
You were such a shy guy
but I can’t keep watching you cry
I’m the only one who knows your truth
and the minds that you bemused
Narrator of so many lies
In fear of dropping your disguise
cause you look like your ego who died
A.L.E.X.
All lies excused with ecstasy
still drowning in your fantasy
Are you searching for an answer
or for a better…
A.L.E.X.
All lies excused with ecstasy
your life has been a misery
Don’t keep reminding those years
where you’ve been rejected
You were such a silly boy
but they treated you like a toy
This was the reason for your weakness
shammed coolness turned to bleakness
Narrator of a broken dream
Your hope is vanishing like steam
See your blue eyes turning dark and grey
All lies excused with ecstasy
There’s more in life than you have seen
Why have you stabbed the one you’ve been
A.L.E.X.
All lies excused with ecstasy
your life has been a misery
Don’t keep reminding those years
where you’ve been rejected
Still drowning in despair
waiting for someone to care
I said that you’d believe in you
but you surrender
A.L.E.X.
Why don’t you leave your lies
release yourself from your disguise
There are so many things that
you can do without
A.L.E.X.
All lies excused with ecstasy
still drowning in your fantasy
Are you searching for an answer
or for a better…
A.L.E.X.
All lies excused with ecstasy
life needn’t be a misery
