Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
Behind me lay the child's balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying
Pointed threats they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fools gold mouthpiece the hollow horn
Plays wasted words, proves to warn
That he not busy being born is busy dying
Temptations page flies out the door
And you follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
And you feel to moan but unlike before
You discover that you'd just be one more person crying
So don't fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing
As some want victory, some downfall
Private reasons, great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to crawl
While others say donate nothing at all except hatred
Disillusioned words as bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Made everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christ that glow in the dark
It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much is really sacred
While preachers preach of evil face
And teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred dollar plates
And goodness hides behind its gates
But even the President of the United States
Sometimes must have to stand naked
Though the rules of the road have been lost
It's only people's games that you've got to dodge
It's alright, Ma, I can make it end
Advertising signs that con
You into thinking you're the one
That can do what's never been done
And that can win what's never been won
And meantime life outside goes on all around you
You lose yourself, you reappear
And you suddenly find you've got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
