There's a broken reverence we hold For those who've lost We fear to be bold We sidestep their woe, keeping our arms wickedly crossed We offer polite comfort, A distant hug, and awkward pat They're like a ticking bomb, we stay alert Keep the conversation to a minimal chat

Broken Reverence
There's a broken reverence we hold For those who've lost We fear to be bold We sidestep their woe, keeping our arms wickedly crossed We offer polite comfort, A distant hug, and awkward pat They're like a ticking bomb, we stay alert Keep the conversation to a minimal chat
