lyrics

It Must Be Pretty Nice

Ask me what I mean
instead of thinking that I’m wrong,
rather live in the pure truth
of darkness
than wear halos of falsity.
Ask me how I feel
instead of thinking that I don’t,
rather starve with necessity
than satisfy disappointment.

It must be pretty nice
to have security,
something beats nothing –
it must be pretty nice.
Feeling like the sun,
wrapped in warmth and purpose:
instead of constant searching
and living on strained kindness.

Better to kiss and make up
or cut the loss and run?
Back to the safety of the silence
and the feeling that you’ve won.
Fighting the noise that screams
anger spite and hate
that lives inside and feeds the need
to constantly separate.

I envy what you have
and would gladly trade my days
of independent freedom
for a living wage,
It must be pretty nice knowing
you’ve played by the rules,
and within safety feel the need
to say, “It’ll get better soon”.

But I’m sick of winners
Who never ask why
and everyone who says there’s no time
to indulge in something good
instead of being pre-occupied.
You may think in these hard times
it must be great to be unattached,
but it’s wretched to hold your values
knowing they’ll never hold you back.
