Sadness Awaits
Sometimes the grass is only greener on the other side
Because it's AstroTurf
Sometimes you're looking in the wrong place for your right mind
Did you find it
Oh darling
You're so painfully lost
You're so painfully real
In a world made of plastic and steel
Sometimes you wonder
If you could be normal would you
Would you trade your humanity
Oh darling, would you
We put synthetic things into our bodies
They say it makes them normal
I call it covering their drowning
Putting a cover over the swimming pool they live in
Hope to god this fall the leaves they wont get in
Oh darling
You're so painfully lost
You're so painfully real
In a world made of plastic and steel
Sometimes you wonder
If you could be normal would you
Would you trade your humanity
Oh darling, would you
Just to end the pain
Oh darling
Would you
I hope you don't
I hope you see the woes that you've fought
I hope you see the sun
I hope you see that these wars are not easily won
No, these wars are not easily won
Pray the trees will still be here when the steel is gone
Pray the flowers will still bloom when we find what we've lost
Oh darling
Darling
You're so painfully lost
You're so painfully real
In a world made of plastic and steel
Sometimes you wonder
If you could be normal would you
Would you trade your humanity
Oh darling, would you
Just to end the pain
Yeah, just to end the pain
Just to end the pain
Oh darling would you
Oh darling
Would you
Because it's AstroTurf
Sometimes you're looking in the wrong place for your right mind
Did you find it
Oh darling
You're so painfully lost
You're so painfully real
In a world made of plastic and steel
Sometimes you wonder
If you could be normal would you
Would you trade your humanity
Oh darling, would you
We put synthetic things into our bodies
They say it makes them normal
I call it covering their drowning
Putting a cover over the swimming pool they live in
Hope to god this fall the leaves they wont get in
Oh darling
You're so painfully lost
You're so painfully real
In a world made of plastic and steel
Sometimes you wonder
If you could be normal would you
Would you trade your humanity
Oh darling, would you
Just to end the pain
Oh darling
Would you
I hope you don't
I hope you see the woes that you've fought
I hope you see the sun
I hope you see that these wars are not easily won
No, these wars are not easily won
Pray the trees will still be here when the steel is gone
Pray the flowers will still bloom when we find what we've lost
Oh darling
Darling
You're so painfully lost
You're so painfully real
In a world made of plastic and steel
Sometimes you wonder
If you could be normal would you
Would you trade your humanity
Oh darling, would you
Just to end the pain
Yeah, just to end the pain
Just to end the pain
Oh darling would you
Oh darling
Would you
