Inside out

 

 

I wonder how the world would treat us if they saw the inside, I wonder how people would react, if they saw the things we hide.
To have all the truths and fears exposed,
without covering up, without keeping closed.

I wonder how people would behave,
If it would help compassion grow, help save.
To see without the lies and pretence,
without judgment or offence.

To know that there is pain or joy,
to understand and not destroy.
To be shown the inner fears,
to finally understand this persons reason for their tears.

To place what\'s inside, out, may be the only way that can save.
To free us, to show us, to unslave.
Our ways, our wrongs our stupid narrow thoughts,
a new way, a way we need to be taught.

To show the inside out would be a powerful tool,
maybe then, we can learn to stop being the fool.
Maybe then we can love and not hate,
maybe then we can accept and stop the gossip, the debate.

We all carry with us a bag filled with stories we dont want to share,
maybe now we can stop all the guessing and all learn how to care.
