Like a falling leaf   You let it slip by   Another wasted chance   No retribution   Like a falling leaf   You watch it fall   Another wasted chance   No retribution      Destruction of your hope   Others feast on what you lose   Bow down your head in shame   Loss of all you hold true      As it slips away   Can't help but feel the pain   I see reflections of loss   I see reflections of hate   Your self-esteem is gone   It tears you up inside   You feel empty and dead   Your feelings for life subside      Your life is empty now
