Where Do We Go From Here?
a song and poem by Lolly Vieira
I wish I knew all the answers
or at least had someone to follow
we are all singers and dancers
making art in a life so hollow
how many souls are lost?
can’t warm up and they die in the frost
how many wanderers know their path
despite the sense of direction they lack
what can I say?
what can I do?
to prove to you that love is the way
what gives you joy?
what makes you blue?
how would you act if this was your last day?
I wish I could give you my reasons
but we all gotta find ‘em ourselves
people change just like the seasons
we all grow with a little help
how many folks have tried?
they fought their whole life just to die
they say there’s wars to win
but one side always loses in the end
what can we cry?
what can we scream?
to show you that we all have a dream
what do you want?
what do you need?
what gives your life all of its meaning?
I wish there was peace on the planet
a home for all animals to inhabit
but it will take the individuals
everybody fulfilling their roles
we can fight with love
we can bring peace from above
all it takes is a little faith
and self-awareness every day
