Feeling

Feeling


Feelings.  Ain’t they a funny thing?
Wondering, feeling, thinking, sinking.


Why?  Oh why?  Oh, I see you are wrong;
Oh yes that’s right. like the words of a song;
Of hope and joy, what a wonderful world.
Reality sucks when a boy meets a girl.


Who will be first to give up on love?
Who will be first to unlearn how to trust?
God only knows, good heavens above.
Humans know Earth; we know its no good.


Death and despair, we have it by the truckload.
Come get it for free; everything must go!
We’ve already sold love, trust, deception and honesty;
Everything is just a word.
There is no such thing, as a true honest feeling.
