Shock Easy

Waking up to a nightmare, go back to sleep
You'd rather be in hell than be here
Waking up again, you'd rather be dead
You'd rather rot in a hole than in your head

All the friends you never knew
All the pleasures denied you, denied you
All the love you never knew
All the hatred inside you

It was all too easy, it was all too easy
Now it's all too heavy, now it's all too heavy

Waking up to a nightmare, concrete and steel
No surprise, you were denied your last appeal
A power over life and death, say we ain't seen nothing yet
Who made you executioner

If you can't laugh, then no one can
If you can't love, then no one can
If you can't dream, then no one can

If you can't laugh, then no one can
If you can't love, then no one can
If you can't live, then no one can

It was all too easy
Now it's all too heavy
It was all too easy
Now it's all too heavy

Too late to be human
Mama didn't want you
Daddy never knew you
Nobody came through
Totally invisible, totally unknowable
Too late to be human now

If you can't laugh, then no one can
If you can't love, then no one can
If you can't dream, then no one can

It was all too easy, it was all too easy
It was all too easy, it was all too easy
Now it's all too heavy, now it's all too heavy
It was all too easy, it was all too easy
Now it's all too heavy, now it's all too heavy
Now it's all too heavy, now it's all too heavy
