Smothered Hope

(How could you distance them?)

(How could you distance them?)

(How could you distance them?)

Withered rope you hang what's empty

Can't remain, to put it simply

In time cry the hollow words

To sing with false disguise

A smothered hope fly from sorrow

For a new divine tomorrow

I just don't wanna know anymore

Life shifts up and down

Everybody knows it's wrong

Life shifts up and down

Everybody knows it's wrong

Life shifts up and down

Everybody knows it's wrong

Why don't you care?

Life shifts up, down, wrong

Ooh, now do it seem fair?

Life shifts up, down, wrong

It's not in the rhyme or reason

So it goes with every season

Crawl to top fall through bottom

First hand love is really rotten

Slice of life find what's plenty

Inch towards a sanctuary

Light with me inside the womb

I know everyone

Everybody knows it's me

It's my voice

My voice cries out obscenity

Sightless eye regard my past

Sometimes it should

I just don't want to know anymore

Life shifts up and down

Everybody knows it's wrong

Life shifts up and down

Everybody knows it's wrong

Life shifts up and down

Everybody knows it's wrong

Ooh, why don't you care?

Life shifts up, down, wrong

Why don't you care?

Why, why, why don't you care?

Set on the run

What's the world thinking?

Smell it out

Smell it out, smell it out

Smell it out, smell it out

Smell it out, smell it out

Smell it out, smell it out

Smell it out, smell it out

Smell it out, smell it out

Smell it out, smell it out, oh

(Oh)

(If the world's a hell what does it matter what happens in it?)

(If the world's a hell what does it matter what happens in it?)

(If the world's a hell what does it matter what happens in it?)

(If the world's a hell what does it)

(Ha-ha, ha-ha)

(Ha-ha, ha-ha)

(Ha-ha, ha-ha)

(Electric chair)

(Electric chair)

(Electric chair)

(Stop the button, the button, the button)
