If you can give me one second to explain, I might be able to show you just a glimpse of this pain.

If I had a couple minutes to justify, I might be able to shed some light on my life.

The cause, its unknown.
All hope has died,
Despair has grown.
The cure, always lost,
No matter what the cost,
In compliance,
I'll paint the silence.

But I can't, there's no time.
We all are stuck in the illusion of some great sublime.
But we aren't, and there's no time!
I'm standing in place.
I'm like a pathetic mime.

The cause, its unknown.
All hope has died,
Despair has grown.
The cure, always lost,
No matter what the cost,
In compliance,
I'll paint the silence.

You could give me a decade to show, But I know that you would never really know.

I could write a book to illustrate, But I understand that you will never be able to formulate.

The cause, its unknown.
All hope has died,
Despair has grown.
The cure, always lost,
No matter what the cost,
In compliance,
I'll paint the silence.

I'm in pain in silence.
