Tossed awayDays of glory


Tossed away Days of glory long evaded No use asking for change They'll never make it So still I pay For debts that they created As my years fade I grow weary and complacent They've held this masquerade to long And its time to face it It shouldn't take three incomes to pay for a room the size of a basement
