brotherhood?
For all of our wandering, We've still so far to go For all of our questioning, We've still the need to know  Are we still the frightened child? Are we still the angered youth? Or are we old before our time? Are we getting any closer to the truth?  We're force-fed reasoning Yet, still can make no sense The mind misses the point Blind in its arrogance Should we build a "better way"? With whatever we can find? If, in turn, it means we lose ourselves? Should we force a common mind?  We're weaned on empathy To satisfy our doubt While attempts at unity Have scattered us about Should we invent a "common bond"? Through means misunderstood? Or are we simply widening the gaps? Should we force a brotherhood?
