Sometimes this life seems so bad
There seems to be a great injustice on earth
That which is bad seems to go forever unnoticed
And that which is good seems the same
There are bad things that go on and on in other countries
That I’d rather not talk about
Does it ever strike you as quite insane
That some experience pleasure and others only pain ?
People say forgive and understand
But sometimes you feel you just can’t do it
You feel so much pain
You think you’ll never ever smile again
All I see is fighting so bad
Between men who ought to know better
And one is the winner – the other is the loser regardless
Regardless of the battle in question, you know
As far as I can see everything is this world is balanced
(Balance all over the world)
Feelings of injustice are perhaps an ignorant thing
(So trust in everything)
The universe has its reasons for doing the things it does
(And I’m asking you to. . . )
Try to understand these things
