Testing, testing, one, two
There's a difference between living
And just getting through
A motivated minion that talks about change
Too scared to take the plunge
Afraid that life will rearrange
Into a series of disasters
That will haunt the present
From here to ever after
Dipping and tripping into a bottomless pit
Diving and barrelling
Into a not too comfortable fit
Of anger, rage, and misunderstanding
One size too small
Everything is...

What does it take to make a difference?
Is it pain, sufferring, and denial?
Glee, sharing, and smiles?
I don't know that I know
I don't know that I can
Smile for me...
Smile without the drug...
Smile without the hurt...
Just make me smile!

Can you do it?
Is anybody listening?
Is this thing on?
Testing, Testing... One, Two
