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
