A Poor Boy's Substitute For Love - Copyright (C) 11/17/09 by Dan Sharpe.

A contract written in bruises, tears, and blood,
a poor boy's substitute for love,
and being treated like a dog,
no comely prince out of this frog.

All your dreams have slipped away,
hiding from each rainy day,
a life of promise gone so wrong,
that you no longer have your song.

Listening To;
Billy Joel - An Innocent Man
