Richter Light
we'd like to feel we can't be held responsible
for things we can't control or even know about
but times like these bring proof that's not refutable
act now - don't act
both ways we still are culpable
time is waging war against my mind with every passing hour
I know that nothing that I find will make me whole again
some days I feel I'm trapped by indecisiveness
and faith as hard to find as basic truthfulness
in times like these my mind is full of fear and dread
act now - don't act
someone somewhere will soon be dead
I have no strength inside to offer to the truth of my ideal
I've got this poison in my system and I don't know how to feel
I have no light inside to offer to the depths of the unknown
I've got this quiet little anger and I know I'm not alone
