We call the survivors victims of their darkest days The scars they bear are on heart, soul and face As if no mask could hide their disgrace of another's sins When watched for behavior Becomes a steak-out of fear That unpredictability of their burdened minds And everyone's a savior A well doer Everyone knows the remedy and you're just a prisoner Your own mind is a cage to your fear, hate and rage Come out No one is judging you or watching you or knowing who you are Let us help you because we know so much about what it is you're going through No, nothing will ever be wrong again And the burdens of your heart are forgotten to be happy See the sun It is shinning just for you and the clouds that rain Are not tears but forgotten horrors soaked away To come down upon another Everyone knows more than the soul that knows it all Firsthand is too close to understand what's really going on You just perceive what's unreal in the madness of what's unknown These shadows only dance because you hold the pistol Why torment your dreams when you can be free Remember the days when you could forget the anxieties of ignorance Strength is the only weapon against strength Why do you refuse to be strong The good are always the best and the weak Well The weak are an illusion that we burry in the maimed Feelings are a commodity we could do without Just look at the bloodied hands and shallow graves that scatter The horizon brims with people full of knowledge and understanding Can you hear the angles singing This is the time for reconciliation And those poor souls to pierced to join the choir The streets can hold enough The drains of our livelihood more And what cannot be washed away can always be forgottenThat's what they tell you That's what you hear and oh so long to believe You want the pain to be removable You want to forget with the break of your heart Believing is seeing the lie and loving it still Knowing is for those who care to be miserable What's the point in forgiving and forgetting So be free And the shells of the dead can crumble To the soft pavement of sand To sustain this way of life that is the only way worth living
