Tears From Your Eyes (Seasons Finale)

The future through my palm pilot Strategizing my future Through this invincible organizer Murder reigns But I’m seeing true life through my murky visor Simple prayers, hopes and wishes Sympathy in a blind mans kisses Pay attention and we notice Without misery it’s so hard to focus Pleasure of being decomposed by flesh eating locust The battles in this life I lead Shadows in the night twist and turn in greed It’s all fun and games until we bleed Senseless, Ain’t it something How we became a dying breed? Tears in your eyes, baby girl its okay to cry Life isn’t promised and someday we all die Second chances taken too lightly I reckon you advance in prayers nightly Shattered glass, invisible window So insensible, the images that exist through Nintendo Stress keeps my heart pumping Guests leap and start to mumble Ah disgusting maggots, sour dough and dumplings Poverty and a bumpy road to recovery
