I hate that my distraught thoughts leave me with a distraught mind In order for one man to see a dream, another must be blind That's how the world is One side drowning in desperation while the other floats in bliss Young children crying, parents dying All for the sense of pride that never existed Empty stomachs screaming in the code of negligence Impediments, pressure to decimate appendix South of life, dark side of the moon Where gunshots spark and revenge is always soon Minds leaning, heads swinging Solid hopes lost in fog The pen scratches from the position of the fortunate Im good. But I know someone else is hitting snooze because they fear of being awaken into reality These thoughts distraught my mind all the time Carved on an angel's wing, "It's the only thing keeping you human in a world full of roles"

Benefit Of The Doubt
I hate that my distraught thoughts leave me with a distraught mind In order for one man to see a dream, another must be blind That's how the world is One side drowning in desperation while the other floats in bliss Young children crying, parents dying All for the sense of pride that never existed Empty stomachs screaming in the code of negligence Impediments, pressure to decimate appendix South of life, dark side of the moon Where gunshots spark and revenge is always soon Minds leaning, heads swinging Solid hopes lost in fog The pen scratches from the position of the fortunate Im good. But I know someone else is hitting snooze because they fear of being awaken into reality These thoughts distraught my mind all the time Carved on an angel's wing, "It's the only thing keeping you human in a world full of roles"
Just some thoughts and visions on my mind, perhaps common
