The world is a sad place
if you open your eyes and look
it's not as simple as thumbing through
reading the pages of a book

It makes me lose my appetite
all I wanted was a friend
but the world is too harsh
to have a start without an end

Nothing is sadder than ending
except having to go the duration
of something you started
and didn't want for complication

So I can see the reason why
people keep their eyes shut
if you don't see the blood
you don't know you're cut

But it's okay, night will fall
again, dark will pour
like it always has before
