Sigh


Chaos and sadness
Where have the simple things gone?
All of this madness
Do you really expect me to be strong?

Whipping whirlwinds
Far-off places our hearts can't reach
Unforgiving sins
Forgetting the lessons we said to teach

Can you hear the baby cry?
Do you even know why?
It's selfish to give up and say goodbye
But if you want, let's sit together and sigh 

Bitter realities
What has good done to deserve this?
Pretty fantasies
Wrapped up and sealed with a false kiss

Lies aplenty 
Is anyone certain of the truth?
Darkness is heavy
Never to regain what we lived in youth

Can you hear the baby cry?
Do you even know why?
It's selfish to give up and say goodbye 
But if you want, let's sit together and sigh 

Oooh, oooh 
Oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh

Is that the end I see?
I pray for a better life for my children after me
Cry no more, I'll sing
And their sweet smiles will be a pretty thing
A moment the inauspicious cannot catch
And if you want, we'll sit together and laugh
