Within US
Within you
Within me
Lies blacks and whites
Days and nights
The will to fight
To right the wrongs and not lose sight
Within you
Within me
There are bars and rails
Ships with black sails
Dark details we lock in cells
Undead horrors sealed in caskets with nails
Within you
Within me
There’s a victim there’s a truth
There is evidence there is proof
There’s a knife to cut the noose
There’s a future if you choose
Within you
Within me
There is joy through the pain
An umbrella for the rain
Madness to be tamed
And clarity to be gained
Within you
Within me
We are all the same
Only differences are the names
So live your life free of shame
So there’ll be nowhere to place the blame

we all have light and dark natures and essentially to be close to one is to be close to the other which is something i think we all tend to forget... appreciate you reading

I can agree with you there. Unfortunately, I think fighting, racism, and hate are all deeply engrained in human nature, and may always be...
Yes, I am cynical, heh :P
