Grief in this world
Sounds like hell
The emptiness
Reflecting the naked eye
Like a mirror
So perfect but hollow
Grief in this world
Is what kills one inside
Over and over
And over and over
A deadly cycle that never stops
Grief in this world
Are the anguished cries
In the graveyards at funerals
Cries that sing in heartbreak
And eternal melodies of pain
Grief in this world
Is the weapon against happiness
Destroying everything in sight
The forced smiles of foolish humans
Are masks hiding the pain
Grief in this world
Can shut a crazy man up
His happiness while drunk
Shows the true loneliness beneath
He fades away in grief
Grief in this world
Like the dance of death
So out of touch
So broken and hurting
Is the grief in this world
