lyrics

“Let’s Be Serious”

Why don’t you cry on the inside
but shrug it off as if it’s fine
‘cause everybody knows
the times are to fast
to do something slow like that

And seriously do you think you’ll
be taken for sincerity
that kind of thing is for soap operas
and even those are considered a joke

Small talk, this is
the result of years
of staring at the wall
we call television
has taught us to
laugh it all off like the drunks do
without vision

But where is my relationship with my father?

Oh how you long to find your home
when the room is empty
you had a good laugh but now that’s past
and the peace you never had is gone
and it kind of makes you mad
‘cause it’s gone

Why don’t you cry on the inside
but shrug it off as if it’s fine
‘cause everybody’s souls are just big black holes
begging the question

Where is my relationship with my father?
