"Postcards to Tokyo" - Lyrics

If I stand, am I the only one forgotten?
In their hearts, I'm just another moment that they'll live;
And they'll live and laugh and love this world we built them;
But they'll never see this world the way I did;

When they cover me and they don't have to face it;
Shed a tear and pray that God would fix it;
Cover me and watch the dirt erase me, now;
Uncover me -

A purple heart and drop your gun down on the table;
They wash the blood off your hands but your mind just wasn't able;
To heal the scars that left the children with the widows;
An overpass between you and this life you couldn't live -

When they cover me and they don't have to face it;
Shed a tear and pray that God would fix it;
Cover me and watch the dirt erase me, now;
Uncover me -

Well I can't take this anymore;
These broken bones - these bloody shores;
These stories that they keep behind locked doors;
No, I can't take you anymore;

A suicide - a folded note;
A man out on the ledge;
The circus lights - the talking heads;
A helicopter roars;
The broken hearts, your name;
The one's that came to save you;
Save your conscience for a soul with something left t' give;

When they cover me and they don't have to face it;
Shed a tear and pray that God would fix it;
Cover me and watch the dirt erase me, now;
Uncover me -
