Together
here we stand
hand in hand
one by one
we will come together

and either destroy us in ourselves
or renew the world as it once
was.

Here we are
eyes meet eyes
words are said
either
with love
or with hatred.

Life is lived
lives are lost
lives are made
its either natural
or destroyed by man

Here we stand
hand in hand
i love you
i hate them
you love me
and them too
but you hate these others

maybe we'll stand
hand in hand
in a state of chaos
as we who live now only know.

Together
here we stand
hand in hand
one by one
we will come together
and either destroy ourselves
or better the world.
