Through the lies

I'm not asking you
To change the past
Just to realize it cannot last
Not askin you to like my mother
Just to now hurt another
I ask how you hurt-what's your gain
From hurting others-from inflicting pain
How, when time goes by so fast
You look at the good times
And break them in half
Then look at the bad times
An cry cause they happened.
How can you listen
Knowin it's all lies
How can you sing
When the curtain is closing
How can you breathe
Knowin you hopeless
How can you not feel
Knowin they're hurtin
An' when theres noone to scare
For you, who will be there?
