"Rest their Eyes" - Molly Conrad

Have you heard the news today
Much like the news we heard just yesterday, but anyway I forgot
All the worries I once had
Before this trivial mindset was taken over by the world being bad

Ever since the war was won
A new one had already begun
When can they just rest their eyes
Without the disguise

We are simple people waiting on some
Goodness to not fall apart
Maybe our luck will lead us in the right direction but
Somehow we have yet to start

Can our neighbors even see
What a place this could be
If the troubles weren’t fought long and hard,
The hardness might subside

Let us paint the streets deep red
With our paintbrushes used for weapons instead
No pistol can show
Living’s the only way to know

We are simple people waiting on some
Goodness to not fall apart
Maybe our luck will lead us in the right direction but
Somehow we have yet to start

Turn the corner, look into their eyes
And see it is their disguise
Turn the corner, but don’t look into my eyes
I have no disguise

We are simply people waiting on some
Goodness to not fall apart
Maybe our luck will lead us in the right direction but
To know, we have got to start
Living
