I don’t want to think,
Cause I do want to feel
these things that are happening,
can actually be real.
Too many scenes
And images I've seen
Too many faces of grief
I don’t want to see,
To many faces,
flash through my mind,
when I try to sleep at night,
I don’t want them to be true,
I’ve seen too much,
Heard too much,
Now I know too much,
I can’t deny anymore it is true.
2011 is yet but 2 months old,
How can this time hold?
this terrible toll,
but the images in my mind tell me it’s true.
Tonight I don’t want to sleep
‘cause I don’t to see,
the pain on faces of people I know,
‘cause it makes it all so real.
I can pretend to understand why?
‘cause right now nothing makes sense,
Only this media age in just 2 short months,
We’ve had too much information.
Then just today a few bombshells
made a direct hit,
things I found out
I rather not know.
I know I’m in shock,
so much truth in so little time,
I don’t want to think or feel,
Otherwise it becomes real!
