Everyone here wants something for nothing
And got the little games they play
But no one wants to give
They'd rather throw something away
Those words 'love thy neighbour'
It seems that they've been lost
Everyone is chasing millions
But I say 'at what cost? '
They teach you to work hard
And to walk atop another man
But that's not the way its meant to be
And I don't think I can.
If they had never changed the days of old
Where love was life and hearts were gold
Every one would see the light
That shines in every soul so bright
But because we live in times so dim
love of life is just a whisper in the wind.
