people love you the most for the things you hate |
|
and hate you for loving the things that you cannot keep straight |
|
people judge you on a curve |
|
and tell you you're getting what you deserve |
|
this too shall be made right |
|
children cannot learn when children cannot eat |
|
stack them like lumber when children cannot sleep |
|
children dream of wishing wells |
|
whose waters quench all the fires of Hell |
|
this too shall be made right |
|
the earth and the sky and the sea are all holding their breath |
|
wars and abuses have nature groaning with death |
|
we say we're just trying to stay alive |
|
but it looks so much more like a way to die |
|
this too shall be made right |
|
there's a time for peace and there is a time for war |
|
a time to forgive and a time to settle the score |
|
a time for babies to lose their lives |
|
a time for hunger and genocide |
|
this too shall be made right |
|
I don't know the suffering of people outside my front door |
|
I join the oppressors of those who i choose to ignore |
|
I'm trading comfort for human life |
|
and that's not just murder it's suicide |
|
this too shall be made right |
