Our World, Our Pain, Our Remedy

On one count in our world where remedies are wanted Yet vessels are found with no still soul So much Pain is communicated in silence within the nation but only among the likes that can understand its notion The birds are crying for their safety yet standing on a dying tree The fetus is kicking in the womb of a mother seeking a hideout at gunpoint The children are struggling to sleep while their parents stand and watch The authorities are calling for votes from a hungry nation with no peaceful homes Where do we go from here? What can we do to end the suffering and instill peace? How can we stop the crying voice with a heavy heart? When will the day stay forever? Tell me the remedy to a painful heart where laughter can no longer make it smile? Spell out the remedy for those wet eyes that beauty can no longer stop its drop? Can you tell the remedy to a sad soul that music can no longer feed? The rhythm is lost, yet the heart keeps dancing endlessly. Let’s match the tone of love Love can make the poor forget who they are Let’s match the tone of love For love can put away pride and the taste for violence Let’s make this place our home again By standing for others and standing with no ulterior motive For the world revolves around and tomorrow is unknown
