Death is on the news
Violence the new muse, inspiring
Cheaters they get praise
Encouraged by the snakes
And the pure of heart they get lost in the snow
Takes me down low
So deep I don’t know where to go

So I close my eyes when I feel like giving up
And for peace of mind when love is running out

I can see it fade
Our hope and I’m afraid it’s getting worse
I’ll say what I can say
To turn this night to day
But don’t you tell the world that everything’s alright
That it’s not worth the fight
Sometimes I don’t know where to go

So I close my eyes when I feel like giving up
And for peace of mind when love is running out

Go tell the ones who have no water
The man who lost both wife and daughter
Tell the child who just got beat
And the girl who walks the street
A tortured boy they sent out west
With a bomb taped to his chest

So I close my eyes when I feel like giving up
And for peace of mind when love is running out
And for peace of mind when love is running out
