Danger


We’re in deep danger 

Provoking hatred with a stranger 

Leading on others to anger 

I tell you we’re in danger 


 

His heart is craving love

As he looks at all mighty above

He feels this urge of emptiness 

And feels as he should run

 

Doesn’t know what he’s running from 

But oh how he’s in danger 


 

A boy only in grade school 

Feels God will never save you 

Or him

Or her 

Oh how we’re in danger 


 

LIke a soldier with no gun 

He feels defensensless 

Just as he knew 

…..We’re all in danger
