I see the happy the family tree

It sways so easily

We're smiling all the time

This world just isn't mine



We watch it burn

And we never learn

This can't be what you're waiting for

Staring into the sun

We eat our young

This can't be what you're waiting for



Just take it easy on yourself

Forget all the stupid things we say

I know you beat up on yourself

I know it's in your blood



You say what no one understands

The seeds are in your hands

The branches break your bones

I can't just leave you alone

And watch you squirm



And I can't bring myself to look

I rip the pages from the book

And watch it burn
