Well, she drinks all day to numb away
the pain she feels or thinks that life has given her.
In her home, a room alone, away from her estranged
family she talks all day to the tele(vision)
and dreams of all the things she should have,
could have never been.
Then again across the world there is an African
who does not care for the despair of a woman
that he has never met before and ever will.
Because it's mid-day morning
as he sits on dirt in a dirty shirt,
sucking on a dirty root
to drink a drop of moisture to survive
and be alive for one more day.
A matrimony vine, beautifully dying,
does this really matter that much any way?
Well, she drinks all day to numb away
the pain she feels and drown the life within her
house a home, the room alone, away from her estranged
family and talks all day to the TV shows and
she thinks about sorrows to feel alive
to feel alive for one more day
In matrimony blind and beautifully dying,
does this really matter that much any way?
