Psychic Pain Lyrics - Singles - Franks Enemy

Utopian visions of a dream world 

Quickly fade into dust 

You finally seize the golden prize 

And see it's really rust 

Obstacles are overcome but followed by another test 

Finally settling in the sun still get wracked by stress 

Happiness brings on psychic pain 

For the darkness surely follows 

The sun inevitably sets for each rise on the morrow 

Your reality of existence you can't escape 

An absurd meaninglessness 

Yet you think you reason your inner world 

Can't explain why with it you're blessed 

Got no way to say who's right or wrong 

Takes thirtysomething states to ratify constitution 

Hitler pursued his destiny 

With approval of public opinion 

Cut away from God it is the human condition 

No happy endings for the rich 

See them languish and die alone 

The poor die their absurd deaths 

Drugs or aids or starvation 

Conformed to the choice conformed to the fall 

Sweet breath of Revelation taken as a tale too tall 

Saving bitterest tears 

For when the Truth hits their eyes 

Will God also cry knowing they won't be dried?
