meaningless 

don’t worry, dear
they’re in a better place now
and god will take care of it

for you’ve no need to cry
your time will come
let go and let god
everything will be okay

i promise
and i love you
and that makes everything better

i guess it was just meant to be
and life isn’t always fair
you just need to accept it

get over it
snap out of it

all you need
is a warm bath
and a good book
a good night’s sleep
and all will be well in the morning

take two aspirin
some vitamin e
call a friend
find a shrink
and don’t cry

there there
call me
we’ll do lunch

you just need
to stop smoking
and switch to decaf

believe me you
trust me
i understand
i feel your pain
and i know what you’re going through

don’t drive so fast
don’t drink so much
switch to ultra-lights
but i went cold turkey

don’t worry dear
it will all be okay

and somehow those words
are suppose to make
everything better
