Reflection of Despair
(Warlock)

*opening guitar/drum melody followed by bass/other guitar*

Why did things get so bad
Why did I become so mad
Why was I too blind to see
and why did the wrong people get to me?
How the hell did my friend get married
How did my friend lose the child she carried
How did I get stuck at my current job
and how did my ex become such a snob

(second melody)

I'm sick of being rejected because I'm not black
I'm sick of wrestlers dying young of a heart attack
I'm sick of girls caring more about a cigarette pack
and I'm sick of not ever being able to get on track
I'm mad that some women think I'm too young
I'm mad that I have to bite my tongue
I'm mad that I have to go to work
even when I'm coughing up a lung

*bridge*

Whatever happened to all the fun
going to water parks and lying in the sun
Whatever happened to being on top
Its a shame all the fun had to stop

I miss the one girl lying next to me
I miss the feeling of being happy
I never had time to prepare
to be the reflection of despair
I miss the good times I had
I miss people that care
I remember being perfection
but turned into despair

*back to the original melody*

I guess being alone is part of life
not knowing what its like to have a wife
Watching others around you have kids
and you're still stuck in the skids
I guess being full of hate has its perks
girls finding faults and all your quirks
When someone threatens you with a gun
you think to yourself finally it will be done

*second melody*

It would be good to see some booty shakin
Its too bad that all the good girls are taken
It would be good to see a nice fat girl eat lunch
Its too bad other guys beat me to the punch
It sucks watching other guys get so insecure
Even though their girlfriends act so pure
Maybe some day a mavri will do a drive by
and maybe I'll get lucky and die

*repeat chorus*

I miss the one girl lying next to me
I miss the feeling of being happy
I never had time to prepare
to be the reflection of dispair
I miss the good times I had
I miss people that care
I remember being perfection
but turned into despair
turned into despair
TURNED INTO DESPAIRRRRRRRR

*guitar solo then back to original melody*

I didn't choose to be attracted to what I am
and I didn't choose to like who I do
People tell me that I'll find someone
I only wish that was true
When I finally move on to the after glow
no other day can compare
Because I finally can know
that its the end of the despair

*repeat chorus*

I miss the one girl lying next to me
I miss the feeling of being happy
I never had time to prepare
to be the reflection of despair
I miss the good times I had
I miss people that care
I remember being perfection
but turned into despair

*final melody*

turned into despair
reflection of despair
REFLECTION OF DESPAIR
OF DESPAIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

*end riff*
