Internecine wars
Fought behind closed doors
Can often be the cause
That gives one pause
To stop and think
Are you heading towards the brink
Of internal disaster
Faster and faster

I read the other day
About the price one can pay
If they, let’s say
Just look the other way
And start pretending
There’ll be a happy ending
Without compromise or bending
What message would that be sending

Without a corrective pill
To address the ill
It will be with you still
And the chances are nil
That given another day
Like a child at play
It will just go away
And everything will be okay

If you don’t understand
That the issues at hand
Are complicated and
When a fire is fanned
It will only start to spreading
And God knows where it’s heading
Like a patch of rough sledding
On towards your Armageddon
