Crossed
There is a fine line
It's many crossed
Doesn't matter who you are.
Give and take
That's how it should be
When given the chance
To prove worthy
When given
They just take take take.
The cycle ends there.
What we don't see
The cycle spinning
Those giving
Those taking
But those who give get in
return
And those who take give in
return.
For many
The attention has to be on
them.
Always what they need, want,
have.
Never what could be given
back.
It's a line ignored
Sometimes abused
A line most refuse to walk.
Every day more and more
Cross over the line
Every day more and more
Less unfortunate suffer the
consequence.
When will this line become
whole again
When will people open their
hearts
To more then themselves
When will respect for people
Be given back to everyone and
not the few.
Some wish when will soon
come
But no matter what
There is a fine line
It's many crossed
Doesn't matter who you are.
