Is only united on
Being divided

In people I can’t look past –

Must be partying in land
Tonight seeing as –

Anchors on ships are
Small compared to what they hold
Like anchors in life –
Be careful where you drop them –
And what you choose to be them

If you were a ghost –
Come back to haunt them!

What if people had –
A bit more faith in themselves –
And in each other –
Instead of in religion –
To make things happen in life?

My mind wanders far –
More easily than my heart –
But there exists those –
With a heart that wanders far –
More easily than their mind

Don’t eat all their pho –
Cause they’re tiny – not wasteful

I have never cared –
So little about so much
In the world as now –
Too many stupid people –
They can solve problems they’ve made
