I'VE BEEN WHERE YOU'RE GOING

from VIOLENCE (2022) by Joey Carbo

/

lyrics

I have been where you are
And I’ve been where you’re going.
And it ain’t nothin’ you done,
Things just got out of hand.
So you’re suffering something.
Well, suffering’s endless.
And numbered by people
Who don’t understand.
And you’ve called out for mercy,
Called all over the world.
But forgiveness is tender
And silence ain’t real.

And so, we all do what we can.
We drive nails and bullets
Through the bodies of men.
We talk of a light
No one’s ever seen,
And we pray to gods
That ain’t ever been
