Touch Inside

Just what does it mean

From one birthday to the next?

Am I getting older?

Is it written in a text?

There are no working guidelines

Not written by man

That tell us how to live

Or take care of our land

We fight in government

We fight in the street

But inside we all just hurt

Like two hearts that long to meet

This body is a shell

That might just go to hell

Still inside we're all the same

And life is not a game

Touch inside

If we could all be blind

If only for one day

Maybe we could feel things

In a new and different way

Or maybe be like children

And see through innocent eyes

Not the body in front of us

But inside where the beauty lies

We called for civil rights

Though what does that really mean?

"Support for the benefit of citizens..."

But that's not what I've seen

This body is a shell

That just might go to hell

Still inside we're ALL the same

And LOVE is not a game

Touch inside
