 Just a poet far away
Image Hosted by ImageShack.us



Looking down upon this mountain everything and everybody is the same
High up within natures laws, there is no suffering or pain
The cold breeze we all feel and the air we all taste
I wish I could take these thoughts and copy and paste
On the lights that glimmer below
But high up here upon this mountain, they will never know
That in another place there is no celebrations for Christmas day
I could have told them, but I'm just a poet far away

Did you know that not one snowflake is the same as the other?
Just like us humans, with our creed, race, class, sex and colour
And just like those snowflakes we look so beautiful but are yet so cold
But unlike those snowflakes we have a chance to change before we get old
But as those snowflakes settle upon our Earths ground
Silently and peacefully without any sound
Boys, girls,  men and woman come out and play
But don't bother asking me, as I'm just a poet far away

Apparently we are killing our planet, with our own expansion and greed
Pillaging our worlds resources until there is nothing left to bleed
Polar bears will be extinct in our childrens lifetime
But like zombies in a poorly scripted expensive movie, we think everythings fine
We ridicule those who are in the minority who warn us, silencing everyone
Gambling on our existence for the price of fun
But oh, how we will miss the simple things of yesterday
Not that it matters to me, I warned you, but I'm just a poet far away

It troubles me to think that millions of people only see the world through the media
Who needs to smell and taste anothers culture, when the Internet makes it easier
One person we talk to online or see on our television doesn't represent a nation
But I guess it's easier to live in suburbia and ones imagination
It makes us narrow minded, bigoted and binds our open mind
As long as I'm' alright who cares about the rest of human kind
Our great bullying armies will sort out things, caring not about who or what they slay
But don't come pointing your finger at me. I'm just a poet far away
