[bodytext] => Even though the world believes That I am just a man I tend to start to grieve Just as I insist I don't give a damn. Suffocate in your ignorance I'll drown in my cynicism And at the end of all of this We'll see who died first. Ignorance may be bliss. But I'll take my cynical grin. To the grave. Kiss my children as we wave Goodbye to your blindness of sin. Cynical grin and knowing eye Cuts through your body You flinch away at the cold regard And gingerly smile at me, as I Snicker for your features are marred By a look of surprise and unsure eyes Feel free to hope for the best I'll continue to expect the worst Because it's all thats left Of a now-broken world. Dreams are shattered and smashed. Hopes clatter and crash. As everyone closes their eyes To the belligerence of it all. Happiness is an illusion A delusion, a false belief of collusion Between two people who can never agree And when it falls apart who are we... To judge and decide, how terrible they are For not having survived. And falling so far. ***** the future and plan for now Today is the day we all must endure Thinking to tomorrow, and wondering how You're going to survive. When all thats sure Is that your going to die. Live your own life, as I do mine. Tired of this strife. But if you come to find That you need me as much as you say Then I'll see you on that fateful day When heaven shines down And again I look upon your frown. On that day I'll be your Jack. And we'll forever look back. And realize that we were never right. Except for when we decided to fight. And proved that our love is real.
