Pictures

Pictures in my mind,
leave me bitter and unkind
So excuse me if I don't
feel the way you do
All around,
on the ground
the suffering can be found
And I want to help
but I'm not sure how too
I know they have it rough
but I just can't do enough
So I wonder if
I should even bother
Poor girl
just wants some food,
bet it would change
your attitude
IF you found that hungry girl
to be your daughter
And still we turn the other cheek
And I for one
am feeling cowardice and weak
We go through life with
our eyes closed
But in our hearts and minds
we'll always know (3x)

Was at the end of my rope
and had given up all hope
But now I see
that's just the easy way out
And I know many have more
but my health I'm thankful for
I don't need everything
that's not what I'm about
So if you've got what you don't need,
please don't resort to greed
Share your power don't abuse it
I'm left with a choice
armed with only my voice
And you can bet
that I intend to use it

I'm not going to turn the other cheek
No more feeling cowardice and weak
Go through life with my eyes open wide
And when someone needs my help
I won't run and Hide (3x)
