Getting away with it It's only for those without a conscience When things happen to people Sometimes they don't know why Even when they do But isn't that it Something happened Somebody was involved I try to keep my ears open There's so much suffering We can only see one way to live The choices we make are so permanent It's not right Life is not a song That's only how it felt in four minutes Living it is like a painting You couldn't sleep and still you're sad You thought about it for weeks You didn't even know it Now we see what you tried to say But who really knows you?
