Cruel Mistress

I know it's hard to see things
that you've never seen
We only know the life we live
and all the rest is unreal
Who knows what life used to be like
if these stories stay untold
Decades pass and people forget
Eyes and ears closed we run

The coral man will always
miss his sweet girl

Kids got guns but no brains
Parents got no time and no shame
"Time heals the wounds
but the nightmares stay"
Yesterday's news made the present day

In sarch for the holy grail of progress ...
what a cruel mistress

Freezing
It's freezing outside
Can you hear it, far and away
I hear it every day, a crying girl, a woman
She's got a beautiful name

Freezing
It's freezing outside my door
Searching
Searching forevermore
