It's hard to sing songs about hope
In the time of the fall of love
It's hard to wake up every day
To something you want no part of
There's thousands of things we can say
But none can take back what's been said.
It's hard to accept what is done
When somebody gets away
When someone who's guilty and smirking
Got the best of everyone today
And you find out you don't have a clue
In the breath before you have your say.
Everything's right here
This is where the bottom begins
Where mathematics takes us over
And It's crystal clear nobody wins
We found out:
Those who taught us our values?
They lived life by seven deadly sins.
An unlucky few are reacting
And everyone else is digging in.
It's hard to keep caring at all
Is the last thing that I heard her say.
Then her eyes rolled back into her skull,
And she dropped
And then she slipped away.
And somebody somewhere yelled
Action!
And then someone somewhere presses play
And while the unlucky few are reacting,
Everyone else picks out their display.
