LEFT TO RIGHT


camaraderie is non-existent on our planet
and distrust and failure is in view
I think we've lost our way in our values
we don't love each other, like we used to do
 
 
 
Left to right now has a different angle
nothing is straight anymore and we're caught
in the middle of what is and what was
and the way our children are now being taught
 
 
 
We can't fly with just one single wing
we need the left and  right to make it safe and sound
without both wings holding together
I'm afraid we'll never leave the ground
 
 
 
Blindness, dark and dreary days now
rosy glasses won't help us see the light
if we don't stop this madness now
then it will be too late to set things right
 
 
 
Left to right, once seemed so easy
up and down and circles, freaking out
GOD we need some help here
we forgot what life is all about
