Al's Lament

I speak bold and mighty
about how the world should be
while our biggest enemy
still lurks inside of me
I wish I could get a grip on myself
I wish you'd just shut up and take a look
at yourself.

My eyes can see so keenly
a tongue so quick and boorish
see myself with pain and embarassment
and still I act so foolish
I want you to take care of yourself
and the rest will take care
of itself.

I could wax so elequently
and spout philosophy
still I write you letters
that you'll never read.
Committment to our future
is all we really need
committment to my future
is all I really need.

See the world through the eyes of another
and you may see everyone as sisters and brothers.
