Console

I know, when I see you, how terrible you feel I know you're fatigued and cannot stand still I know you want to tell the whole world your despair I know you've lost hope in ritual and prayer; I know you have worked hard, I know you have tried I know, how in utter despair, you've cried I know, how polite and courteous you were I know you liked to mingle, to share... I know you looked upon all with the same eye I've never seen you grieve, I've never seen you sigh... Now, when you're shattered, I've nothing to say We can do nothing, but quietly go away - If I were Lord, I wouldn't bear this injustice By shattering one's life, I wouldn't get peace, But I'm a mere mortal, with a mind and a soul I can't give you success, I can only console.
