vincent armone - Desperado

I have been beaten
and left to cry In my blood soaked tears
my thoughts even have abandend me
I walk the earth alone
in search of meaning
and freindship
and have found sorrow and hardship

My jokes my mask
my persona hidden from view
afraid to come forth
for fear of beinging beaten again

Misunderstood
or laughed at
the real me inside
struggles
as the outside smiles

Peoples wants, there dreams, there hopes
before my own these things come
so I act the fool
and take the laughs
and cry blood soaked tears

Who am I then?
if not Vincent Armone
who lurks underneath that batterd skin
who?

I am desperado
and I walk the world all alone
