When you get punched in the face,
when you read the stains
that cross the newspaper's front page,
a kind response is the ultimate counter.
Kindness is our only remedy.
Love is everything
they want to take from us.
Love is everything
they want for us to lose.
Without it we are monsters, too.
Without it we are senseless, cruel,
violent, misguided fools.
You've been made strong enough to take a life;
are you strong enough to take care of one? *
Real strength is found in reason.
It's not about getting what you want,
it's about giving all you can throughout.
Demand nothing.
It's not about getting all you want,
it's about giving what others cannot.
Love is everything
they want to take from us.
Love is everything
they want for us to lose.
Without it we are monsters, too.
Without it we are senseless, cruel,
violent, misguided fools.
Strong enough to take a life;
are you strong enough to not?
Real strength is found in restraint.
This is all the reason I believe in!
* Adrian Thaws "My Evil is Strong"
