Health, Wealth & Peace - Modern Life Is War

In the pursuit of health, wealth & peace

Try not to dwell in the rear view on momentary street

Shun substance for distraction

You can’t squeeze love from hateful action

Picking up the pieces from the days when

Youth was my religion & friends were gods

Awoke and aged atheist in a cold sweat

Begging for recompense

Accepting myself, accepting my condition

Avoiding attachment & following my vision

The changes I waited for never came

My struggles of yesterday are my struggles of today

Give me your heart again, I’ll give you mine

And maybe again, maybe in time…

Our spirits burning bonfire bright in the inky night
