The cast is coming off today
Relief is not that far away
Could be a lonely time to be free
But heal these momentary lies
When you know you're faking all you're taking down
All that scolding and all you're holding down
I see you've taken all the broken bones
Buried deep beneath this ground you've fallen on
The dirty hands you hide that can't be found
The chaste and old survive the heat
The canny and bold revive the fleet
Today the gracious lose their open minds
In a way they've always known
There'd be divine intervention so why intention fails
Is a question pondered, an idea squandered or jailed
I see you've taken all the broken bones
Buried deep beneath this ground you've fallen on
The dirty hands you hide that can't be found
We take ourselves so seriously
Then take chances on the world
We tell ourselves it's not important to feel
But spend a lifetime being hurt
