She Stood There Crying

Contributed by jaysoncarter on Sunday, 28th July 2002 @ 03:35:19 PM in AEST
Topic: SongLyrics

She stood there crying – holding the remains
Of what used to be – a family
Tears stream down – smiles drained away
Now can you see?

It’s all for nothing – it’s useless
All this fighting over illusions
Settle down – think it over
Before there’s nothing left
It’s all pointless – so senseless
Killing over imagination
Stop the cycle – nothing’s to be gained
Exchanging life for a prize you can’t earn without pain

She stood there crying – holding what’s left
Of her hopes and dreams
Bloodstained ground – blues skies drained gray
Now can you see?

It’s all for nothing – it’s useless
All this fighting over illusions
Settle down – think it over
Before there’s nothing left
It’s all pointless – so senseless
Killing over imagination
Stop the cycle – nothing’s to be gained
Exchanging life for a prize you can’t earn without pain

And we sit back – relaxed – blind to the lies
That we accept – no regrets – let the blind lead the blind
And so we go on – before long – we lose and find ourselves
Two steps back with blame stacked – coerced – assuming the slack

Pick your poison – they’re all the same
Too deep plus too much hate equals too little too late
The life can’t be replaced – what a waste
It’s too late to make up for this mistake

It’s all for nothing – it’s useless
All this fighting over illusions
Settle down – think it over
Before there’s nothing left
It’s all pointless – so senseless
Killing over imagination
Stop the cycle – nothing’s to be gained
Exchanging life for a prize you can’t earn without pain

She stood there crying – as the world passed her by
Weeping as it left her behind
One more victim of religion results in
The embodiment of a selfish decision

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
