How long does it take, Before a "soul" can break; Sitting in the darkest hour, In the brightest light of day?
How much pain and suffering-- Can show "us" all the way; When we sit here wondering From day to day to day?
How much litigation Just to fill our medication-- How much medication To forget the litigation???
Is not "one" soul better, Than the "one" whom lives next door? I curse the day upon, The injury that I bore...
Does not a single soul, care about The injuries "we've"sustained?" I worked for those in need And never got repaid...
I do not seek redemption, But my heart aches all the same; If "they" were walking in my shoes-- They'd put themselves to shame!
How do people sleep at night While we struggle for the same-- In the words of "Patti Smith," "It's all a vicioius game"
I've missed my friends and family And those I hold to my heart dear, I've become a single soldier Fighting war, depression and fear...
And so to those that have helped me, I give my thanks and gratitude; And hope and pray that those amongst us, Will not fight and fude...
I've made many friends, Along my weary way; To those whom are more injured Than I can ever say...
To each and every one of you-- I'll bow my head and pray, That the good Lord will sustain you all In each and every way!
The title of my message Is easy to convey-- Let's not take any more of this Lest we all fade away...
We need to band together And not lose thought of why we're here; Days turn into months, And months turn into years...
More and more is how Dependent I've become, On the friends that I have made; I hold no grudges to anyone-my bed is already made
In closing, I CARE for All of you-- Although at times we've disagreed My wish is that we "someday" will be "whole" and
Finally Be free!
