Two strangers Walking through life Their roads have been long Their days filled with strife Love has come and gone Now so far away Yearning for freedom Young lives filled with pain With the stars shining for them The light fills their eyes Laughing through the pain Smiling at the lies While deep inside Their hearts have gone cold Faces so young Before their time grown old The wind whispers softly Into their ears Soothing their pain Drying their tears It speaks of a place Where pain won't exist Where love only matters And heartache desists Then the road forks before them And they have to choose Between one that's less traveled And one greatly used They embrace softly As they say their goodbyes For one choose the truth The other the lies Never again will they meet on the way For one is lost And the other learned to pray
