Flustered?

We must have

brought it on ourselves

The decision

To be who we are

in a cliquey world

*

I had no idea

We would be treated so unfairly

I use all of my best sense

Just trying to fit in

*

They can’t see

the history

that defines me

The clouds are just too dense

They will never know

unless we find the time

**

Busted?

We must have

been caught being ourselves

Take the chance we have

To be who we are

in a tricky world

*

I had no idea

That they would be so uncaring

I use all of my best sense

Just trying to help us

*

Some can’t believe

the history

that we need to see

The sun is way too intense

They will never know

unless we make the time

**

Will we get the time of day

Or will we be ignored?

Will we ever find the way

Or will they pull the cord?

*

Will we electrify them?

Is this circuit a dead short?

Will our plans work together

Will we connect to find support?

**

Rust and dust

With one wind gust

Will forever blow away

*

For lust they fuss

But with love we must

Find progress to save the day

**

Trusted?

We must have

taught it to ourselves

Find faith in health

To be who we are

in a sickly world

*

I had no idea

Their greed would be so overbearing

I use all of my best sense

Just trying to reach out

*

Some can’t conceive

From history

We can achieve peace

The world sits on the fence

They will never know

Unless we save the time
