Cross a street to find ones home A house in which they live alone The windows shake and walls fall down Rains impede with clapping sound Ignore the noises, they're just fear Close your eyes and they disappear
Sleep again through a nightmare Or a dream that's worse by compare Each offers hope that is obscene Another wish to remain unseen Forever's just a word that's spoken Gone each time one's awoken
Walk again in streets of fear Scream to those who cannot hear Realness, only covered tin 14 Karat dipped in sin Flavored by a taste desired Filled with only truth expired
A baby cries but can't yet see The reasons why their tears shall flee Each falls upon a ground too soaked By tears decades before evoked Another life of endless scorn Occurs each time a child is born
