 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons! 

Staring in the mirror with two borrowed eyes
Looking for the part of me that's still alive
Waiting for my chest to fall and rise
Standing in the corner With my shirt tucked in 
Summer turns to autumn winter turns to spring 
And it all flies by like a speeding train 
 
Dead wishes on a broken chain 
White roses in a dead man's dream 
Down and out with nothing to lose 
If these long dead wishes 
Ever do come true 
 
Waiting for the night to come and chase away 
All the flies gathering around my head 
With my memory for a pillow 
And all my regrets for a bed 
 
Dead wishes on a burning lake 
White roses from my soul to keep 
Down and out with everything to win 
If my long since sunken ship 
Ever does come in
