it’s become something i like to joke about
something i now find a bit funny
after all, if we can crack a smile
we can pretend that it isn’t hurting
you are discovering the depths of your heart
we are testing the world’ compassion
up to the limit of disintegrating debris
dislodged into final collision
going to watch cold blooded murder
a child shot between the eyes
it becomes such a great burden
listening to the innocent's cries
trying not to let the truth win again
because the truth has never been kind
give me the lies - so tender and soft
from all the pain - keep me blind
sit by me and tell me a magical story
where people are heroes who save the day
give me that happy ending glory
that takes all hopelessness away
