All Or Nothing

by ♥-Sharon Ardern-♥   Jan 23, 2005


Has my life been wasted?
I spent so long dreaming
And then I lost it all
And spent nights screaming

Now at a turning point
Trying to choose the right direction
But scared of choices
In the event of rejection

Time is ticking by
And choices must be made
But my past has made me fragile:
It’s easy to be betrayed

I wish I still had my dream
Of getting smiles through fame
Now I have a different dream
But it’s just not the same

I guess I want all or nothing
I can’t have all, that’s not to be
So I have nothing
Spread out in front of me

And when I think about it
Death isn’t so bad
If it stops this emptiness
Before it drives me mad.
