Trying something new.


Tried something new, 

ended up getting screwed.

Made some new friends,

but it came undone at all ends.

Made you smile and happy for awhile.

then took a turn, 

almost got you burned.

when will you think about your future instead of the present?

People stood up for you 

and all you did was act a fool

pretend not to care 

when thats your way out of here.
