When the Bough Breaks

It's easy to ridicule somebody else's messes It's easy to blame and sacrifice It's easy to immunize and kill your many pressures It's easy to do it and it's nice It's easy to lust, objectify and crave for better It's easy to kick and punch and take It's easy to walk away, give up and say I'm better It's easy to maim and hurt and fake It's so easy It's easy To hate To hate It's easy to be on stage alone and feel indifferent It's easy to lie, deny and ache It's easy to live, especially when you're living It's easy to want a big mistake It's so easy It's easy To hate To hate It's easy to preach when you're immersed in self and anger It's easy to throw away a life It's easy to terrify all that you think you covet It's easy to cut without a knife It's so easy It's easy To hate [Repeat to Fade]

A light in the eyes, and A smile on the face, Oh The innocence blows one away God bless all the laughter The children's dear laughter It's something so special, so gay When they fall down I feel sad They're falling down Real, real bad Children killing children What's this all about Children killing children What's this all about I almost denied it The fact that they're dying And seeking approval each day What absolute chaos When babies are murdered By bullets that just went astray When they fall down I feel sad They're falling down Real, real bad Children killing children What's this all about Children killing children What's this all about When they fall down I feel sad They're falling down Real, real bad Children killing children What's this all about [Repeat to Fade]

Near a lake Compelled, I made a start The kind that comes when feeling torn apart I daren't believe it Drained through holes, just like you and me Past the words of insincerity I daren't believe it No, no, no, no, no, no, no I just didn't want to believe it But the truths let me in Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh Lift me up Lift me up Take me down to where the calm is Where my lies deny the light is Lift me up Lift me up Past the years and years of feeding My distortions and my bleeding 'Cause I daren't believe it No, no, no, no, no, no, no I just didn't want to believe it But the truths let me in Truths let me in Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh I said I daren't believe it No, no, no, no, no, no, no I just didn't want to believe it But the truths let me in Let me in yeh Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh Growing up, I feared the boy And who he was, I just ignored him Weightless eyes, it's come to this I have to trust what's healthy for him Oh dear, is that my tear Growing up, I watched the boy He turned to freedoms that could numb forever Then a kiss, a final kiss Gave closure to what was In not one minute Oh my, home from the big lie An imminent clear passage Sends a chill into my back And what's more threatening now Is that there's no way to turn back I, friend of mine, friend of mine Don't know what to say, time out, time out Don't know where we can go from here, Love I'm friend of mine, friend of mine Finally meeting you, time out, time out Don't know where we go from here, love OK OK When I was a child, I heard you calling When I was a child, I took the heat I heard you calling But I couldn't stand up On my two feet And I kept watching you I was watching you And I'd follow all the things You'd have to do Yes all the time I kept hearing you I was hearing you And I really liked an awful lot of you Most of the time And now I've learned That when I'm ready to trust I'll let you know I said when I feel like I am ready to trust I'll let you know

Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, see if you understand Troubled and hardened there's safety in rage So when I was a child I kept building a cage Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, can you see who I am I felt love fragment heartache In my body as a child Oh yeah and I remember Being taught to not run wild What about all those promises And the failures to proceed And I seem to recall now My own hunger and your greed Look in my eyes and you see who I am Look in my eyes see if you understand With complex compassion, I've tried to stay near But when you found wrong I would never appear Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, can you see who I am When I searched for the father And the son and the holy ghost I felt blows from my neighbors Who were lost and hurt me most For the millions of children The Sao Paulos everywhere I've remembered who I am I'm a child who wants to share Look in my eyes, can you see who I am Look in my eyes, see if you understand Troubled and hardened there's safety in rage So when I was a child I kept building a cage Look in my eyes, can you see who I am [Repeat to Fade]

I light my cigarette Oh no, I ain't quit yet I ponder for a while And then begin to smile I might not get well I might not seek help I'm only human after all Oh what a poor excuse But one I can always use When I can't imagine growth at all At the watershed Non-wrong watershed I lie bathing in my itsy bitsy bitsy life I say thanks and then Feel indifferent and Keep on basking in my itsy bitsy bitsy life My itsy bitsy bitsy life, my itsy bitsy bitsy life, my itsy bitsy bitsy life Find Love And Shine Shine I might not get well I might not seek help I'm only human after all Oh what a poor excuse But one I can always use When I can't imagine growth at all At the watershed Non-wrong watershed I lie bathing in my itsy bitsy bitsy life I say thanks and then Feel indifferent and Keep on basking in my itsy bitsy bitsy life My itsy bitsy bitsy life, my itsy bitsy bitsy life, my itsy bitsy bitsy life Find Love And Shine Shine

Sit quietly After dark Sit quietly When it's dark The air is clean, it heals the lungs The moon is full, and forest songs Heard only at this time of night Just seems to make it all feel right Step lightly On the grass Step lightly In the grass In green fields with a breeze that plays With leaves that seek a resting place A clay pot holds sweet water clear There is no thirst or chaos here I'm not so tired So very tired Put down the tow line The toil and sweat is done today You get your food You get your life You get your food You get your life Deep in the furrows The aching soul has earned it's pay You get your food You get your life You get your food You get your life Resting a while it's so nice here Oh yes it helps to make things clear So clear Get easy When you can Get easy If you can The back is cracked and feels so straight This is a time to celebrate With no more debts to pay today The touch, the smell, the taste can play I'm not so tired But more inspired Put down the tow line The toil and sweat is done today You get your food You get your life You get your food You get your life Deep in the furrows The aching soul has earned it's pay You get your food You get your life You get your food You get your life Resting a while it's so nice here Oh yes it helps to make things clear So clear Resting a while it's so nice here Oh yes it helps to make things very clear So clear

In a meadow of grass and golden light A noble is born to fall in flight While the slaughter to feed just grows and grows Where's the pity for those who serve our souls Animal animal run away Animal animal don't delay Oh what a shame Savour the blood and guts of it all Ball and chain Over and over again With the wind at your back on rainy nights Do you ever give thanks and say alright For the leather that's warmed the self esteem While the humble and dumb provide the screams Animal animal run away Animal animal don't delay Oh what a shame Wearing the cuts and the bruise of it all Ball and chain Over and over again

Well all that I know It takes a cold heart, cold heart To tear things apart And turn something into nothing, nothing It's been so hard, hard To love the cold heart, cold heart That tore things apart And turned something into nothing, nothing Ain't that the way it goes Ain't that the way it goes It always seems to go It always seems to go Into nothing, nothing Well all that I know It may take a while, a while To let yourself smile After something, turns to nothing, nothing All the heartaches, heartaches Come up with the sun, the sun So mangled and done, so done Because something turned to nothing, nothing Ain't that the way it goes Ain't that the way it goes It always seems to go It always seems to go Into nothing, nothing

Try life I heard try life Seeds sown To seek the unknown What a reason What a reason chasing me I stayed hanging onto a life That threatened to destroy I knew it and it didn't even care Help me from this was whispered in the dark I knew that I'd got lost But that life never listened it just laughed When I got lonely Ooh I got lonely I'd ask it, I'd ask it connect me up, yeah yeah And when I was dying I thought I was dying I'd ask it, I'd ask it to bring me 'round, yeah yeah When hungry I would feed myself To me and in that self made hell I'd cry out I'd cry out That's when I heard try life I heard try life Real life A whole life What a reason What a reason chasing me
