It seems to blur together
this tapestry of life
events of hate and violence
cut through us like a knife
The fabric that’s been woven
is dark and dense indeed
so many people cry at night
they’re hopeless in their need
Our leaders seem oblivious
so long as they’ve got theirs
can anyone transform the scene
it seems that no one dares
I pray the day may soon arrive
when we will see relief
and the world will find a better way
for Love is my belief
In the meantime that we live in
yes in the here and now
while I shed a tear for every soul
to the Love in each I bow
