Tell me "Stranger" have you judged me from afar?
When you've never really even knew me at all,
Take all that information from talks you've heard-
along the way the conversations get twisted
importance just a murmured blur.

Comparing to the rest is common-
the gathering of youthful minds
hoping for a unity of the popular times,

I feel those you've hurt-
cry tears within the coldness
but not because of what you've said,
You only left the starting ripple for their pain;
labelled them the worthless person whos to blame?

Throw away your common popular times,
strip naked and bare all to the world,
there is no meaning to life-
but if there were then i'd said this
"Live life today, as if it were you're first,
because if last you lived it then you'd rush
and make it the day of pointlessness
but in a beginning there is no certain end
just a new experince to share with others
and when the times change just begin again"

Interesting thoughts, Lee, contrasting a beginning/ending focus.

Lots of strangers would like
to tell us who we are.
Nevermind.
