about human kind and how we so often place ourselves above those in need
This song is actually titled: That's Tragic But I Haven't Given It A Second Thought.

She thought she was the only one who knew
Her little secret, deepest regret
Selling lies that no one will ever buy
Digging her way out of debt
Trying to rise up after her fall
Into fear, despair
But she doesn't know where
To go

Lovely, lovely you're slowly dying now
It's almost tragic
it would be if anyone cared enough, at all
I'm sorry dear but you'd need a miricle to get you through this storm
And no one's here for you
Lovely, lovely why don't you speak up?
We can't hear you from way up here

Running from everything and everyone
Look at what she's become
Desperate to escape it all
Face down she falls
Thought it would be better here
You're falling apart my dear

Lovely, lovely you're slowly dying now
It's almost tragic
It would be if anyone cared enough, at all
I'm sorry dear but you'd need a miricle to get you through this storm
And no one's here for you
Lovely, lovely why don't you speak up?
We can't hear you from way up here

Ship wrecked
You're a mess
Struggling to keep your head above the water
Stay a float
Just keep breathing
You're seeing your life flash before your eyes
One part upsetting
Two parts pathetic
But we still don't care

Lovely, lovely you're slowly dying now
But it's not all that tragic
Because none of us care much, at all
I'm pretending I'm sorry dear
You know you'd need a miricle to get you through this storm
And we're simply just not here for you
Lovely, lovely why don't you speak up?
We're propped up on our pedestals
And we can't hear you from way up here
I swear we're not ignoring your helpless state
We can't hear you from way up here
