What Honesty Sounds Like
Lacking a Little Warmth
In the end, we're all sad stories
with social security numbers
Collecting fake smiles and sympathy
that eventually, nobody remembers
Gathering what's left behind
lost rewards and little treasures
Grabbing what happiness we find
one day claimed by our successors
I know this sounds a little dark
a taste of what honesty might sound like
Lacking in a little warmth
void of love we'd hoped to find
But sometimes life can take its toll
leaving you empty and alone
Trying to heal up our souls
with well wishes made of stone
