Heal

Empty, with no respect at all
We expect what's been built to crumble and fall
Shocked at the indifference to our unheeded call
I ask you, "what do we offer instead?"

We cannot change around
Until we change within
To scream and yell and sloganize
Only shields us from our own lives
Without understanding, we offer our own views
What the hell are we doing, rebels?

I am scared by the way you act
Do you always know who's really being atiacked?
With an unknowing shrug, we go and turn our backs
To the only few things that we have left

Commitment is not measured in the months
but by the years
The time to stop will not be our first tears
A life spent with more trouble time, pain, fear
Is there any way to stay close to what we hold dear?

Integrity, truth and love is what we need
Rebel, heal thyself
