No Such Thing

There's no such thing as hope.
The ocean's choked with soap.

The fish must learn to cope

because there's no such thing as hope.

There's no such thing as love.

Our food just kills the dove.

Don't touch without a glove.

There's no such thing as love.

There's no such thing as dreams.

There's garbage in the streams

and the lakes all turned to steam.

There's no such thing as dreams.

And nothing's getting better.

That's why I wrote this letter.

The girl you knew? Forget her.

Because nothing's getting better.
