Hey sister what's this I hear Your good deeds are in arrears By now you surely know Of earth's aches and backwards flow Some bank on just one more war Hide behind faith to settle scores And in all this righteous zeal Seems we've lost our will to feel Well if I die before I create Please don't ask me 'bout the world's fate My time is short and my path so long It feels like too much for just one song Guilt's never been good to me Far be it for me to preach This heart's a lifetime's task To change another's too much to ask When dust settles to the ground I'll take stock, see what seems most sound Till then, storms will come and go So I stick with these things I know And place my faith in these here three In compassion and simplicity And hope to help each other along When maybe it takes just one more song
