I Always Fail

So...  
So the sun will rise  
Blue skies  
Will never prevail
Always a story to tell  
Like a queen I should hail  
Somehow I always fail  
 
Passion is kept under lock and key  
But not for the world to see  
They all think she cares  
It's a masquerade she shares  
But for me it's never there  
 
Stuck here  
Here in my mind  
Somewhere between seven and nine  
Cold words and silence is all I find  
Is it shades of green  
That imprison me  
Have I been blind

In a game of control  
I'm left on an empty shoal  
All that I paid  
My sacrifices I've made  
Is never enough  
To fulfill her needs  
 
Stuck here  
Here in my mind  
Somewhere between seven and nine  
Cold words and silence is all I find  
Is it shades of green  
That imprison me  
Have I been blind
 
How I wish  
How I wish she was you  
The faithful are never true  
Here in my mind  
Somewhere between seven and nine
