Tripping (XXV)

First they ignore you

Then laugh at you and hate you

Then they fight you, then you win

When the truth dies

Very bad things happen

They're being heartless, again

I know it's coming, there's going to be violence

I've taken as much as I'm willing to take

Why do you think we should suffer in silence?

When a heart is broken, there's nothing to break

You've been mixing

With some very heavy faces

The boys have done a bit of bird

They don't kill their own

And they all love their mothers

But you're out of your depth, son

Have a word

I know it's coming, there's going to be violence

I've taken as much as I'm willing to take

Why do you think We should suffer in silence?

The heart is broken, there's nothing to break

All is wonderful in past lives

Dreaming of the sun, she warms

You should see me in the afterlife

Picking up the sons of dust

When you think we're lost, we're exploring

What you think is worthless, I'm adoring

You don't want the truth, truth is boring

I got this fever, need to

Leave the house, leave the car

Leave the bad men where they are

I'll leave a few shells in my gun

They stop me staring at the sun

I know it's coming, there's going to be violence

I've taken as much as I'm willing to take

Why do you think we should suffer in silence?

My heart is broken, there's nothing to break
