Ugly is This World

Through hypocritical eyes I see

Ugly is this world which sees the ugly in me

To speak about this world

It\'s the venomous words I seek

I know the ugly in you

cuz I know the ugly in me

So how could I ever see hope for this world when I consider myself one of the good guys

It\'s through the eye\'s of a child

That is where this flicker of hope lies

I look to my son

Six years old; ruddy face

I start my car for work and he shouts

\"Dad let\'s race!\"

My world is one of truths... much too heavy

But he lives in a world where he can outrun a Chevy

And it\'s his confidence that gives me hope

Where it once couldn\'t be seen

A hope that my world won\'t collide with his world full of dreams
