Some
Some days are better than others
Others sometimes not what they seem
Every night, true sight vanishes from my reach

Some People settle their differences
Others seem more content to settle a score
Nightmares in a world of opportunity
Isn’t that what nightmares are for?

Some seek power and glory
Others seek money and fame
Every fabric of society deals with pain its own way

Everybody seeks their solace
In many forms or more
Dreams distil the nightmares
Preventing the fabric of thought

Someday people will be more equal than others
Others will pillar and scorn
Opinion will resemble an arrow of pain
Isn’t that what language is for?

Some seek Love and Justice
Others seek good health and each other
Every fabric of society is laid atop of another

Most bodies are content being nobodies
Nightmares remind them we are weak
The very fabric of being is accepting our limits of seeing

Some days are better than others
‘Others’ are sometimes not what they seem
Every night I feel that true sight vanishes from my reach

Some seek God and faith
Others seek Queen and Country
Some say a tidal wave in China can affect my every feeling

Every fabric of society deals with pain
Isn’t that what language is for?
Preventing the fabric of thought

Every fabric of society is laid entwined with another
The very fabric of being is accepting our limits of seeing
Some say a butterfly flapping its wings can affect my every feeling
Some say… all deal with pain its own way
Some say it’s down to our dealings
Isn’t it down to our feelings?

Some say a tidal wave in China can affect my every feeling

"Nightmares remind them we are weak"

lot of great lines and one great theme...the line I quote left me a little unsettled. because it's true.  


"too bad ignorance isn't painful"
~Unknown~
