these are the events this is your despair 
who are your friends when your life falls down 
the one you call close hasn't made a sound 
how can it be when all you have is need 
when it all goes away you're the one who bleeds 
obstruction of trust as you're reeling from the loss 
detached from what we know who can you trust 
if you can't trust them where will you go 
how can a world build to self-destruct 
as it has and as it will we wonder 

the promises conveyed will give nothing to dull the 
pain 
a last say is what it is but no one wishes to hear 
stay the same and remember your stance but who are they 
when you haven't a chance too many words and too little
