Give a rest, don’t forget
Don’t cry, he will drown
Miss everything, and smile back
Let’s pretend were God enough,
to hide the frown

Your simple kingdom broke down in one night
Few humble souls went along in your flight
Silence kicked in,
even the tourette obsessed birds stood quiet

What happened?
We stared in the TV screens.
Why? Oh, why?
The world cries, why?

They will drool until you bend.

Turn your body in to a burned ham
Thousand miles of blond, fake hair
I almost got lost in there.
Pretty zombie look at your brain,
More looks like a pulsing blain.
Trusted surgeons won’t help...
