Whoarewe

I came looking for anger And I found it I sought fear And it found me Sometimes our silence is as loud as our shouts Sometimes our actions reflect our doubts To reward death with more death Is like adding gas to fire To reward compassion with love Is like adding a branch to the spire I came looking for revenge And I found no justice I sought retribution But punishment found me To be blind to all action, I mock my sight To be courageous in the dark, I will win the fight Can I, can we, continue to hate Seeking only struggle to this endless debate Can I, can we, find the lone olive on a barren tree Or shall we all parish because we sought only decree?
