At Least Be Decent

Cheerful and pretty, but you’re dark inside
Leaning on a demon that you fight to hide
An eye for an eye doesn’t keep you kind
And because you’re hurt, you aim to make things worse

Mismanaged secrets and your lowered self-esteem
You think you’re witty, but you come off mean

We’re all fighting for the same dream
At least be decent when you see me

Stop what you’re doing. Look up to the sky
Think about the principle and ask yourself why?
Why you had to be this angry; why you had to show your teeth
Call upon the good person you’ve buried deep beneath
Buried deep beneath

There’s not a medal for holding a grudge so strong
So learn these words and you can sing along

Now you’re on your own
Nowhere to go
The anger and hate led you down this road
To parts unknown
And still I say

We’re all fighting for the same dream
At least be decent when you see me
