NO THANK YOU'S
NO THANK YOU’S
A MIND THAT PLANS EVERYDAY
WAITING FOR OPPORTUNITY
TO CHANGE A DAY AS IT MAY
BUT TODAY I UNDERSTAND MYSELF
WITH A STRONG MIND, VERY OPEN
ALTHOUGH MY CARE, IT HAS NO LIMITS
AND MY LOVE, IS DEEP AND EXTREME
MY LIFE CONTINUES TO BE A SLAVE
TO THE MORE I KNOW THE TRUTH
TO THE LESS I SHOULD HAVE GAVE
AS THOSE TEARS MULTIPLY DOWN MY FACE
MY HEART POUNDS EVEN FASTER
AND MY MIND CONTINUES TO WONDER WHY
DOES ANYONE REALY CARE
WHILE THE MORE I DO SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE
THE MORE I NEED TO SHATTER THESE WALLS
FOR THE BREATH OF FREEDOM
NO ONE WANTS TO SAY THANK YOU
THANK YOU, IS A MOMENT OF THOUGHT
WHICH RELIEVES US OF THE LIVES WE SUPPORT
DURING THE MANY MILES OF BURDENS
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO SEE THE LIGHT
AS WE SEE THE BURNING OF TIME
AGAIN I WILL WAKE
AND I WILL THANK ALL
EVERYTHING
FOR ME THERE WILL NEVER BE
NO THANK YOU’S
THANK YOU
