Eyes for Both

We’ll always have something worth having
no matter how much we lose
so long as we hold onto our souls,
find truth in another man’s views;
so long as there’s love for the other
as we carry our love for the truth;
hold onto our love for tomorrows,
nurture the dreams of our youth.

Can’t explain what we feel when we feel it
but we feel it deep in our bones.
Truth is the peace we’re after,
but no one can see it alone.
It takes light to see the problem
and dark to understand what’s true.
Please give me eyes for both
so I can know what I never knew.

…

The thing about truth is, the darkness hides it.
We shine some light, but the light, it bends it.
We all want the truth, but everyone denies it.
You’re not the light just because you’re living in it.
