I once had a friend who lived in despair,
Though she was beautiful, young, and so fair...

My life full of pain; my heart fill with hate.
It's starting to become more than I can take...

She stand at her desk and gives us instruction
Through every verb, noun, and conjunction...

It comes like a thief and steals away
The ones I love and want to stay...

When I look at you, the love of my life,
I feel so proud to call you my wife...

I heard the footfalls,
Yet no one was there...

Throughout my life, I have felt alone.
No one has cared; none has known...

I stand here all alone.
No comfort from anyone...

If you were to feel
The pain in my heart...

It's already started; it's filling my soul
This evil inside will not hesitate...

He stands in battle proud and strong,
Singing the verses of his company's song...

My heart is broken; my eyes full of tears.
She showed me pain and the worst of my fears...
