We pursue happiness constantly
Bliss more desired than gold
But we are merely chasing a daydream
To a place that here does not exist
We also have a higher calling
We were made for more
To stand and fight for truth and justice
And born to mourn all is not well
For the devastation all around
Should not go unnoticed
This blindness would mock the majestic earth
For beauty is shattered, merely a shadow
So let us weep at all is broken
For we were not made merely to laugh
But also to know there is more.
