I am the voice that sounds in the back of your mind
When you believe someone has done you wrong
That which you have innocently taken
As justification for hostility to those around you
But listening in
So clever is my phrasing that you might find yourself as the recipient
And hear not hostility
But a questioning of your assumptions
This is my purpose
To help you toward a greater understanding
It’s constantly spinning through the air
Constantly changing which side we face
And when it hits the ground
You and I will die
It helps us greatly to know it
Doesn’t matter which side this coin lands on
When in reality
Where one man’s freedom is another man’s prison
And our lives are in thrall of a lover’s death
We’re all so hungry for something real
But we’ll never know
We never did learn to give
Only take
So let's make a bet on what happens when we die
