Love and compassion
Highest of all ends
Going out of fashion
Even towards friends
Need to tread gently
As soft as we can
Hatred is aplenty
We are better than
The freak show parade
Running it's due course
Got nothing to say
Get back on your horse
Pain and suffering
All must go through it
Can be challenging
What doesn't kill us
We shall all find it
Strength to carry on
No longer blinded
By the same hang ups
Leading us to hell
Stuck in a deep rut
Only time will tell
If we can get up
Ghosts of betrayal
Would leave most broken
We simply can't fail
To do what's spoken
Time to let it go
All the holding on
Forgive our worst foes
They bleed just like we do
When knives cut through us
For making mistakes
As normal as rust
The walls start to shake
