Somewhere in the distance

I can hear a siren screaming

Someone lost their life

But, there's a child that needs rearing

And, there's a baby that needs love

I just pray to God

That He will give them something

To dull away the pain

And, something to give them reason

For why the world is as it is

And, to rip away the blame they're now feeling



Rain is falling down upon us

But, we're not wise enough to know why it falls

But, I believe there is a reason

Just like I believe there is a God

And, sometimes not knowing is knowing enough



I don't claim to know a thing

How could I

When you're standing opposite my side of the room

But, why I came here tonight was not to stand here idly

Or to stare up as the eclipsing moon

The reason I came here was to find you

I'd love to live to die beside you

So, should I attempt to break the news

Or would it prove to be too hasty



And, now these questions are running through my puzzled head

And, it's like the cardboard side is facing up

So, it seems impossible to attempt to piece them all together

And, all these questions do are make me tired

So, my best attempt would be to rest my aching body upon this empty bed
