Deep Questions, Shallow Answers

There will always be tyrants; There will always be violence. Whether or not There will always be heroes - Everyday is decided Virtue is nothing But a word if you hide it. Righteousness goes unrecognized Even if you're standing beside it When superseded by silence. All of your sweetness and kindness Are without meaning if your mind is The only place that people can find them. So speak up, remind us What you believe in even And especially if no-one agrees with your findings The greatest achievement of humankind Has naught to do with seas or the skies It's that we keep asking why No matter the reasons we find. There are some people like puddles, And there are others like oceans, And yet in each you'll see that the mud is Just as easy to clean up As the water is the key to the puzzle. Life's most secret surprise is That when it comes down to the choices To which the people are binded Even the deepest of minds is Just as shallow as the loudest of voices If it doesn't speak up when time is Moving faster than reason, behind us Is all the proof that you should need to remind us That every future has been decided Not because an answer was found But because we needed to find it.
