Carefree Theatre

You broke through all the surfaces
With the men of war
You hitched your wagon and you know
Who you're working for
You paint a murky picture
With a bulky brush
You'll pry apart the fault lines
In the new gold rush

And think of all the times
You looked the other way
Forgiving was the easy part
But you couldn't stay
And think of everything
You've hidden in your heart
Forgetting always was the hardest part

You've got your reasons
Now you're on your own
Bottled up and running over
In the great unknown
And sifting through the rubble
Of the recent past
Looking for absolution
Where you've never asked

And think of all the times
You looked the other way
Forgiving was the easy part
But you couldn't stay
And think of everything
You've hidden in your heart
Forgetting always was the hardest part
