I wrote this shortly after the Columbine tragedy.
Mr Everything
hey mr everything i was wondering if though
about where youve been
I was thinking that you'd want to contemplate
the choices you've made
hey miss beauty queen i was wondering if you knew
what it means
i was thinking how said it always seems when you grow older
and i dont know if i could make better choices than the ones you have made
and i try not to judge you and the choices you made
but what about the things that don't blow away with the winds of change
the things that don't often slip and fade away the wicked things you just can't slay
somethings just won't wash away
Hey who chose this theme cause i was
wondering why we're falling apart at the seems
and why no one wants to wake up from there dreams into this world
hey could you tell me why we got to the place where children die
by the hands of there friends who just try
to find a way out
and i dont know if i could make better choices than the ones you have made
and i try not to judge you and the choices you made
but what about the things that don't blow away with the winds of change
the things that don't often slip and fade away the wicked things you just can't slay
somethings just won't wash away
do you wonder why we always say one thing and do another
do you wonder why jesus said don't even hate your brother?
maybe he was talking about something more
like peoples hearts and the deeds that they wore
maybe we need to contemplate the words that he spoke
hey la la la la ya
well hey ja ja ja ja ja ja ja
and now pa pa pa pa
how do we do that????
and i dont know if i could make better choices than the ones you have made
and i try not to judge you and the choices you made
but what about the things that don't blow away with the winds of change
the things that don't often slip and fade away the wicked things you just can't slay
somethings just won't wash away
