Thinking of using the chorus of this piece in the musical I'm writing Whatcha all think?
Your fingers clench your arm turning white
Your eyes are full and raw with passion
And you tell me what is in your heart
The woman and the children
All abused and you feel powerless to help them
I say
I’ve been trying to find some healers in this world of pain
I’ve been fighting for years and I’ll be fighting again
And I know there’s so much more to be done
You see, I am a healer
But I’m just one
Poor student trying to make it through the year
Five dollars once a week’s all you can give
A little bit of time trying to help those downtown
All you see is more need
Thousands more without a chance to live
You’ve been
Chorus
Just one piece in a massive puzzle
Just one voice in a roar of noise
Just one dollar every day
It won’t make the pain go away
Just one act of compassion cannot fix milennias of oppression
But if enough healers can get off our asses
Maybe we can make us change.
