"Understand" lyrics

Today is not the right day to fall apart
Pick up the pieces, walk out of the dark
They won't discriminate
It will swallow you whole

Pick up the pieces, walk out of the dark

No one is safe, contaminated
Brain corrupted, all common sense
On a single line with our backs to the wall
No heart, no compassion at all

When there is no hope left in her eyes
Only wanted to understand, but there is no reason why
It makes it hard to pretend
And now we wait for the wounds to heal
Only wanted to understand, but there is no reason why

Pick up the pieces, walk out of the dark
Pick up the pieces, walk out of the dark

This is real life
This is me being honest

They won't discriminate (They won't discriminate)
It will swallow you whole (It will swallow you whole)

When there is no hope left in her eyes
Only wanted to understand, but there is no reason why
It makes it hard to pretend
And now we wait for the wounds to heal
Only wanted to understand, but there is no reason why
When there is no hope left in her eyes
Only wanted to understand, but there is no reason why
It makes it hard to pretend
And now we wait for the wounds to heal
Only wanted to understand, but there is no reason why
