So when the smoke and the fire of anther attack slowly drift away
D C G
Can anyone seem to find the appropriate words to say?
G C G
When the pain of loss and sudden change conjure family strife
D C G
Is there any hope at all for a return to normal life?
G C G D C G
G C G
Is there solace in condolence or just deeper pain dug up?
D C G
The sad truth is victim's families have nothing to look forward to
G C G
And I'm sick of picking up the Boston Globe and seeing painful days of loss
D C G
Question everything without apology about the horror and the cost
D C G
Shards of life are left behind, no easier, kinder path to find
D C G
With a loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it hopes and plans crash in defeat
G C G
And hope is a foggy and distant memory no hope for normalcy
D C G
Cling close to the legacy of loss and shards of life, of life
G C G D C G
G C G
We see a new war in the offing as we're challenged by a new plight
D C G
It's media handle is terrorism, it's the same old ideological fight
G C G
The debates will rage on, are we handling this thing right?
D C G
Can't turn away reality, can't push it out of our mind's eye
D C G
Shards of life are left behind, no easier, kinder path to find
D C G
With a loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it hopes and plans crash in defeat
G C G
And hope is a foggy and distant memory no hope for normalcy
D C G
Cling close to the legacy of loss and shards of life
G C G
And civilian loss on the other side, is that something that we try to hide?
D C G
What about the human condition, I'm sick of all these justifications
G C G
Where is the real outrage? My god, there's got to be a better way
D C G
Is this how we solve problems? I guess we haven't really evolved much
D C G
Shards of life are left behind, no easier, kinder path to find
D C G
With a loss so bitter, so incomplete, with it hopes and plans crash in defeat
G C G
And hope is a foggy and distant memory no hope for normalcy
D C G
Cling close to the legacy of loss and shards of life.
D C G
And cling close to the legacy of loss and shards of life
D C D
Cling close to the legacy of loss and shards of life
