If We Were Born
Tell me if we were born
To make us cry
If arms were weapons, tears were joy
What would be like
If mothers were to see
Their children off
Just to ensure that someone's fret
Has been payed off
What do you see, what will you see
In faded eyes?
You dare to spit you had no choice
That big fat lies
How do we mend, how do we bridge
The sweeping gap
Between the future and the past
With the present sapped?
Selfless – what kind of word
It used to be?
You squeeze your fingers round one's world
It makes them grieve
You say the word – they feel the pain
A slightest nod – it goes insane
A cruel mob is in the reign
An anxious look becomes dead plain
Do I want this?
Do I care?
Time most worthless
A life to spare
Do I want this?
What did go wrong?
And on, and on, and on
To make us cry
If arms were weapons, tears were joy
What would be like
If mothers were to see
Their children off
Just to ensure that someone's fret
Has been payed off
What do you see, what will you see
In faded eyes?
You dare to spit you had no choice
That big fat lies
How do we mend, how do we bridge
The sweeping gap
Between the future and the past
With the present sapped?
Selfless – what kind of word
It used to be?
You squeeze your fingers round one's world
It makes them grieve
You say the word – they feel the pain
A slightest nod – it goes insane
A cruel mob is in the reign
An anxious look becomes dead plain
Do I want this?
Do I care?
Time most worthless
A life to spare
Do I want this?
What did go wrong?
And on, and on, and on
