in my search for love i found hate in my search for peace i found war and in my search for truth i found lies, in my search for freedom i found prisons in everyone, i found sickness instead of cure, i found lust, i found greed, i found hunger, not something you can eat, i found drought but never water, it's the thirst that kills our brothers, i found famine, i found plague, i found these things my heart cannot take, And in my search for the answers, More questions I have found. in my search for calmness, there are storms in my search for smiles i found tears, in my search for joy i found sadness in my search for something, i found nothing in everyone i found selfishness instead, i found destruction, i found despair, i found some people are beyond repair, i found death instead of life, i found poverty instead of wealth, i found pride, i found envy, i found these things makes the world so heavy, And in my search for the answers, More questions I have found.

In My Search For
in my search for love i found hate in my search for peace i found war and in my search for truth i found lies, in my search for freedom i found prisons in everyone, i found sickness instead of cure, i found lust, i found greed, i found hunger, not something you can eat, i found drought but never water, it's the thirst that kills our brothers, i found famine, i found plague, i found these things my heart cannot take, And in my search for the answers, More questions I have found. in my search for calmness, there are storms in my search for smiles i found tears, in my search for joy i found sadness in my search for something, i found nothing in everyone i found selfishness instead, i found destruction, i found despair, i found some people are beyond repair, i found death instead of life, i found poverty instead of wealth, i found pride, i found envy, i found these things makes the world so heavy, And in my search for the answers, More questions I have found.
