As we say in this neck of the desert, life is something something…

Have to find a way…

When I see the world around me
It sometimes brings me down
Wars and devastation
Green that’s turned to brown
I try to right some wrongs
Effect the change I can
We all need to do our bit to save the world from man

Some people say that I’m naïve
That I can’t go changing minds
But if we do what we always do
No changes will we find
So think about this world we have
The only one we’ve got
And think about what you can do to save this world from rot

You don’t make peace with friends
What’s the point in that
We have to walk that road to peace even though it won’t be flat
We have to find a way
To make it all work out
’cause what we’re doing now
Has riddled me with doubt

Some people think I’m stupid
That I’ve clearly lost the plot
But I just want to save this world
The only one we’ve got
I know I’m just one person
My influence is small
And in the worldly scheme of things
I don’t matter much at all

I just want a world
Where I’m not afraid to live
We humans are amazing
We have so much to give
If we put aside our differences
And righted all the wrongs
Perhaps we’d have a world
Where everyone belongs

I’m smart enough to know
It’s not as easy as it seems
And when I’m feeling jaded
I’m afraid to even dream
We’ve got to work together
To find a better way
And ask ourselves what we can do to save the world today
