Some Memorial – Echolyn – letras

This park used to be a reservoir before Charlie drownedSaving a doctor and his girlThey drained the water and moved the earthNow housewives have a place to walkSome memorial to be aliveThese stones were men I knewBefore they fell in love with a girl who is deceptionShe kissed the skin, they named the holesThen she laid them in the same groundSome memorial to be aliveNo wonder our eyes were shut through it allDon’t we have enough corner coffee shopsconcrete and scripted lies?Crowded when they comecures lifeless gray wanting to turn awayWe’ll never be the sameDon’t you have enough pills and cigarettesthis time to dull the pain?Angry when it comes, lonelywhen it’s gone, wanting to feel the sameWe’ll never be the sameReflection is never what it wasWith the years and what the body’s gravity doesWe build it up, then grind her downReplace the earth; we all return to herSome memorial, to be aliveLeave nothingEven though I shake the handI shake the hand of denialI run to follow all my friendsI see them stare in denialIt’s a long time to go, it’s a long timeMedicate the eyes so they see just what they need toKeep them blind to pacify the mindso it won’t bleed throughFill the ears with numbing waste to cancel out the humAddled brain cannot complain about anything it’s doneLeave nothingDrop the kids to chase a ghost to get right for todayDrop the dead in garbage bags to better our tomorrowLeave the earth a leeching holewhose water stands pollutedThe answer to our everything is a medicated dozerTake a hand full of seeds and a mouthful of dirtLie down, become a gardenLeave nothing as it wasIdled brain cannot complain about anything it’s doneLeave nothingDrop the kids to chase a ghost to get right for todayDrop the dead in garbage bags to better our tomorrowLeave the earth a leaching holewhose water stands pollutedThe answer to our everything is a medicated dozerTake a hand full of seeds, and a mouthful of dirtLie down and become a gardenLeave nothing as it was
