Lyrics
They had such good intents.
Hopes and dreams seemed so much easier.
Then a darkness fell some frozen change took over,
and now we have...
commitment ripped apart, now these units must
live their shattered lives piece by peace .
And all of the time the pain of not knowing why.
Its so easy to think of just one.
But is sacrifice worth the pain that is sometimes felt?
The daily routine goes on and on with feelings of
one for one and all for one.
Advancing up through the levels,
some goals are met and some will fall and fade away.
And as each day goes by, some will laugh and some
will cry out... " will the sun rise once again "?
And all of the time the pain of not knowing why.
Now it's come to criticize, critique.
As the jealous side inside starts to show.
What is unknown is often misjudged.
Is the question really to be or not to be?
Ignorance brings on cruel views.
Prejudice provokes hate and violence in its wrath.
Colors from a different place,
unfairly judged because of race.
What will the children think?
And what to answer when they ask us why?
Its so easy to think of just one.
But is sacrifice worth the pain that is sometimes felt?
The daily routine goes on and on with feelings of
one for one and all for one.
All for one!
