When Doves Cry

When doves cry

is it because 

they are filled with pity?


 

When they lie

slain on the street

I can only hope they went out quickly


 

I drive by

through busy streets

I count their dead

I feel so sorry


 

When doves cry

it must be because

they know most will not miss them

    two things

    certain in our lives

    death

    and

    taxes

    until the day we are dead?

    How do we know that we’ll die

    if we are not dead yet?

  • 11:11

    It’s alright

    It’s fine

    It’s 11:11

    the luckiest minute

    of my life

    So don’t waste it

    Hold on for just a minute

    and remind

    yourself you are

    alright

    Why did you have to hurt us?

    Again?

    Again?

    ‘Cause when I was young

    there was a chance

    a chance

    to be free

    a chance to see a woman be

    something new and

    different
