Heal

Empty, with no respect at all

We expect what's been built

To crumble and fall

Shocked by 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 lies

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 is really

Being attacked?

With an unknowing shrug

We go and turn our backs

On the only few things that we have left

Commitment is not measured by

By the months

But by the years

The time to stop

Will not be our first tears

A life spent with more trouble

Time, pain and fear

Is there any way stay

Close to what we hold dear?

Integrity, truth and love is what we need

Rebel, heal thyself
