Every dude from your high school you thought was a scumbag
May have grew up with a mother that beat him into silence
Everyone that you've known, all these people that you think you know
What moments of tremendous pain could they have lived through to carry
Gut-wrenching specificities
Why are we so caught up in the orbits of ego
Denying the lives of the people
That we refuse to truly see
As if this world made a promise to us that it wouldn't be ugly
As if anything good ever came from denying the humanity
The restlessness of suffering
The obstinance of ego
Forever colliding
Forever destroying
All you can really do
See a mirror image of your own face on everyone around you
