Tragic Ain't Funny

Lyrics.

Damaged bones and cracked muscles

Whining to survive to another worthless movement 

The bedridden pray for the miracle of routine

Don’t you go and wrap hope in false expectations

At least the TV sells the same lies 

To everybody, so openly 

Tragic ain’t funny, honey 

We all use each other like corrupt bank accounts

Tragic ain’t funny, honey

Empty wallets, break our hearts

Choose fire instead of love 

Flames and wounds straight to the point

The young and tormented freeze and stand still,

Their bodies just a piece of baby beef

Minds running a thousand miles away from survival plans

In chains and praying for the end of all that is real

Tragic ain’t funny, honey

We all use each other like bank accounts

Tragic ain’t funny, honey

Empty wallets, they break our hearts

And I don’t ever want to touch contentment again 

Blessed be the truths no one wants to tell to us

And I don’t ever want to be aware or make sense

I am married to my own solitude

Waiting for the children of monogamy, sweet monogamy 

But tragic ain’t funny, honey

We all want to live inside reversed nightmares

Tragic ain’t funny, everybody’s got a broken mind

Or a broken heart 

A broken heart

Author's Note

I don't like the title, but it suits the lyrics somehow. Well, anyway... Hope you'll like my new lyrics.

Don’t you go and wrap hope in false expectations........We all use each other like corrupt bank accounts....Flames and wounds straight to the point....In chains and praying for the end of all that is real..Empty wallets, they break our hearts.....I am married with my own solitude...Tragic ain’t funny, everybody’s got a broken mind
Or a broken heart......absolutely excellent!

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

I love the strong sense of reality you have in this work.
The truth you share is a beacon of light...
cast over stormy waters. The lyrics are deep and thought provocative.

Rock it Karina! These are wonderful lyrics. They speak of hard times, but I'm not left with a depressed feeling.
