Lonely boy, tell me 'bout a life

I'm survivor, who never asks "Why?"
"Use or be used" is the motto I lived by
I'm still got a heart, but I locked it way inside
I store it on a shelf, along with my pride

I've heard all your promises,
Your plans and you schemes
But I've had too many people
Walking over my dreams

Life so lonely drag, but I'm alive

... girls got road to the west-end lights
I walked my tears away, night after night
I've end with lover and a family ties
I don't know other way but leave them...  (in lies)

To late to collect all the favors that I owed 
I'm hitching a ride down the purgatory road

Life so lonely drag, but I'm alive
Let's talk about life..
Lonely boy
C'mon tell me 'bout life

Film directors tell me my face is a winner [bad word] scout said I can be a singer
I've read all the scripts, but I'm inside their heads
There's an easy room to start them and it leads to their beds

I've seen all my options going straight up the river
They go up and smoke when I fail to deliver

Life so lonely drag, but I'm alive
Let's talk about life..

I know all the scams, that stinks and that stims
I still got my plans, I still got my dreams
I still keep my smile, that I make through
There always somebody worse after you

I'm alive..
At least, at least
I'm alive
