Sides of the Coin

The battle before us
The Left and the Right
Calling to everyone
Join in the fight

Calling, demanding:
“Which side are you on”
The Left or the Right
Not the right or the wrong

Dividing while fighting
Nere missing a day
Not doing, nor proving
They mean what they say

A dog and a pony
Make us their whole show
Crafted to hide
Where they want us to go

Crafted to hide 
Who is really behind
All that we’re seeing
And someday we’ll find

That the Left and the Right
Who call all men to join
Are nothing but opposite
Sides of the coin
