The Greater Good
You don’t know what it’s like in my shoes
Instead of love songs, I sing the blues
From heart ache to heart burn
I watch and I learn
Searching the globe
Until my heart implodes
Caving into my chest
No more and no less
Alone all my life
Through trouble and strife
I bow my head
Dejected, I fled
I ran and I ran
All over this land
I ran for cover
Over and over
Lost in a spiral
I’m stuck in denial
My cup runneth over
Hoping to discover
The meaning of life
But the sun is too bright
The moon and the stars
I’m stuck behind bars
Imprisoned since birth
Scouring the earth
For love understood
And for the greater good
