I see the tracers it leaves in the sky 

A racing stripe canopy for your eye 

I see it dying fast right through the floor 

An aftershock of filth and gore 



We try our best to just keep control 

Just to keep breathing 

Is reaching a goal 



I can see now how fast it really grows 

I see God's face with a bloody nose 

Unbelievable to you and me 

Yet easier all the time to see 



We try our best to not lose our minds 

Just to keep breathing is wasting our time 

We try our best to gain control 

Just to keep living is taking it's toll 



It doesn't take a scientist 

To really comprehend the gist 

That everyday we all decide 

To slowly commit suicide 

And there is no hotline to call 

No saviour coming to get us all 

I can't fathom how it happened so fast 

How bad we were beaten 

Floored and harassed
