Thought I'd end up alone
Turns out we're all alone together
No amount of social
Can pave over our lack of personality
Or it's just money?
When you are eternal sadness
The brightest light would still be dark
We need different illumination
One that doesn't lie
To your face and denies
Truth and facts, yr all just hacks
Don't you tell us to relax
Thought I'd be all alone
Turns out we're all in this together
No amount of social
Can pave over our lack of sympathy
Of people moneyed
When you are eternal sadness
The brightest light would still be dark
We need different illumination
One that doesn't lie
To your face and denies
Truth and facts, yr all just hacks
Don't you tell us to relax
Let's stop being deceived
And act upon our grief
A loss today won't matter
Even if we get battered
If in the end
We win this war
But it is hard to see
When you are eternal sadness
The brightest light would still be dark
We need different illumination
One that doesn't lie
To your face and denies
Truth and facts, yr all just hacks
Don't you tell us to relax
When you are eternal sadness
The brightest light would still be dark
We need different illumination
One that doesn't lie
To your face and denies
Truth and facts, yr all just hacks
Don't you tell us to relax
