Our Own Song

Amanda K lessig (Sunshine) 1987

Could this all be a nightmare?
Stuck in this hell
A world so unfair
Where is the equality?
How can I not let the pain bother me?
I can feel a world in past times
I do not remember the details
My mind is blind
I can feel the respect
A truer concept
What life should truly be like
If we could all get along
Sing our own song!
