I heard about your story on the internet 

One of those things that was too gruesome to forget 

We like to pretend it doesn't exist if we don't see 

We like to keep our noses clean 



Baby, hell opened up and it swallowed you 

Daisy, the world's good at pretending there was nothing we could do 



These unseen horrors echo through us all 

We wear our blinders, we put up walls 

We keep our evil locked in books and art 

We learn to plug our ears to the weeping of our hearts 



Baby, hell opened up and it swallowed you 

Daisy, the world's good at pretending there was nothing we could do 

Maybe suffering isn't only yours or only mine 

Daisy, evil has been with us for a long, long time 



The fight is always on and never ends 

We roam the in between where angels can't defend 

And every turn we take makes us gods or men 

May the hurt I feel for you make me a better friend 



These forces may be stronger than we'll ever be 

But Daisy you've opened my heart and you've made me see 

The only thing between us is what we let there be 

And we must choose to love what's lovely
