I have seen you slip
Are you really happy,
Or just trying to forget
Every joyful moment is reciprocated
By a desperate and lonely thought
Force it out of your mind,
Shove it all inside
If we all changed to the lifestyle
You're suggesting, what would be the end result
Would we be perfect,
Plastic hiding our grief in a shell of a
Conscience until it bursts at the seams
Or would we be able to deny our frustration
Entrance and live a perfect existence
Chemical cage, created around ourselves
There is a balance, negativity needs
To exist, pain needs to persist
Otherwise the moments of joy
We experience would loose their relevance
The creation is just a veil covering your self-destruction
Everything you know is a lie
Looking in as an outsider I have seen you slip Are you really happy, Or just trying to forget Every joyful moment is reciprocated By a desperate and lonely thought Force it out of your mind, Shove it all inside If we all changed to the lifestyle You're suggesting, what would be the end result Would we be perfect, Plastic hiding our grief in a shell of a Conscience until it bursts at the seams Or would we be able to deny our frustration Entrance and live a perfect existence Chemical cage, created around ourselves There is a balance, negativity needs To exist, pain needs to persist Otherwise the moments of joy We experience would loose their relevance The creation is just a veil covering your self-destruction Everything you know is a lie Explain Request ×
