Fill In The Blank

You could love this
It's just a little word
You take it out on occasion when it's necessary
We could believe this and lead our hearts astray
Still there are some that say
"It doesn't matter anyway"

So stay down if you fall
Or find it so unnecessary
To think big or walk tall
You understand me but to the contrary

We could annul this such a dirty world
You leave me now
For an invasion that's more than temporary
If we could live here and play the part today
Still there'd be some who'd say
"Nothing matters anyway"

So stay down if you fall
I find it so unnecessary
To think thin and talk small
True understanding never seemed to carry

Another blow to the head
We could learn to play dead and fill in the blank

We could achieve bliss
If we start today
Or we could play dead
And learn to take it instead
Another blow to the head
And you can fill in the blank

I find it so unnecessary
To fill in the blank
The answer's always temporary
Fill in the blank
Up close, beauty is far from scary
Can't fill in the blank
