Angels All Around

Spiraling down the steps of life Watching ourselves as we fall Knowing not what to do about this strife As this black hole engulfs us all Is this the purpose of our existence? What's the point of being pure inside? When our deeds are met with resistance And the world must it chide. We are being tried, We are being tested Our joy is filled with sorrow Our very being has been arrested We need strength to face a new tomorrow Can we measure our suffering and pain Which grows by leaps and bounds Piercing eyes look at us with disdain Our cries are but a muffled sound In our dreams we see reality Is reality but just a dream In our quest for peace and tranquility Somebody please hear our screams We need somebody, We need a helping hand To keep us standing on the ground To lift our faces up from the sand We need Angels all Around
