Lyrics
theres no organization or public seats, no rules just clawing nail and teeth
a loss for words but your eyes they speak, droppin head in hands over family grief
it takes a village to raise the children but theres a billion ignorant civilians
shooting and killing and heroin dealing, this blame on others is through the ceiling
and a chill pill-ow talk, monsters in closets, a day for ourselves away from the office
overwhelmed and bound and the facts compound..like this is the world we gotta live in now
so pick your poison its all a drug, that changes your feelings or lack thereof
but "them" and "they" they always give up, its this woman and man when times are tough
to keep the magic no spell or wand theres even more fish now in this little pond
both through the scars and allegations you experience sensory depravation
but sometimes you just gotta forgive, your losing time whether you lose or win
we wont go quiet into the night cuz now that fountain of youth is dry
no matter what i could always be there
no matter how much we are scared
like ill love you forever if you never grow old im just trying to make you smile
we both now im a fool
no matter what i could always be there ill love you forever if you never grow old
I can’t help it, it makes me sad
These kids growing up without mom or dad
Hey, when did it get so bad - and everyone get so mad?
Took the world for all it had
Devil took your soul, and made you laugh
Woke up this morning so there’s still a chance
To look back at it, and be God’s plan
Children of men - No more courage
Another left on the steps of an orphanage
Corrupted
Dreams in storage, somewhere lost and this rain is pouring
Alone out here with nothing to hold
Walking by people feeling like a ghost
The older we get, the more it hurts
I remember it all when I saw you first
Smile at the world like an inside joke
Generations gone like smoke
Rows of flowers so what’s one more
Please, don’t ever grow old.
no matter what i could always be there
no matter how much we are scared
like ill love you forever if you never grow old im just trying to make you smile
we both now im a fool
no matter what i could always be there ill love you forever if you never grow old
theres a war and its out there boiling, for your restraint, ethics and loyalty
with this bloodclot comes fatal cancer calenders dont wait for answers
back and forth every way since dusk, you, me and the world against us
to make a commitment is not in my nature-put my signature at the x on that paper
through that impression "already in prison" cuz time is just wasting
but i find the minutes outmeasure the dollar, the pleasure is mine
for that 1% chance that we wont divide
My pride is foolish I get it
And I tried by myself, I admit it
Wanted to capture the wind, but I didn’t
Like a tree inside it’s splintering
Cuz it is, but it isn’t
The pieces fall, that’s a part of living
Empty boxes, wrapped in ribbons
Lots of stuff, it’s never ending
Perplexities, keep distracting me
From necessities, like magnetically
Polar opposites, attracting
Naturally
What’s happening
no matter what i could always be there
no matter how much we are scared
like ill love you forever if you never grow old im just trying to make you smile
we both now im a fool
no matter what i could always be there ill love you forever if you never grow old
theres no organization or public seats, no rules just clawing nail and teeth
a loss for words but your eyes they speak, droppin head in hands over family grief
it takes a village to raise the children but theres a billion ignorant civilians
