Mile Away

One Day
on the corner two men trying to beg
One of
them tried to steal
He got
knocked down flat on his head
The other
man was angry, the other man was mean, the other man was stronger, he started
looking at me...................
We see
it from a mile away
Then
we turn the other way
See it
from a mile away, then we want to let it go
Up ahead
in the distance three wound up in a thread
One of
them tried to break out
She got
knocked down flat on her head
The other girls we’re seen
a half a mile from broken under the bridge of sorrow they started looking at
me............
We see
it from a mile away
Then
we turn the other way
See it
from a mile away, then we want to let it go
I wish
away the dream, I wish away the madness, I wish away the Cosmic, I wish away
the sadness………
I wish I
never seen, I wish I never seen..............
We see
it from a mile away
Then
we turn the other way
See it
from a mile away, then we want to let it go
