Michael McGuire Personal Politics Lyrics

PERSONAL POLITICS
© Electric Babylon Music Author: M.M.

I was hanging in the balance, I was balking in the breach, my troubled
mind seemed all to near, and the world was out of reach, I was
trembling
in the cold wind, in turmoil and despair, I was dying by the wayside,
and
the world didn’t seem to care.
I am the reason that there’s a world at all, and if I lose my grip the
world
will surely fall.
You are your own mystery, you may never ever get caught, just
because
your not to blame, don’t mean it’s not your fault, you don’t seem to
heed
the warning, but your sure you know what’s right, but do you ever
wonder, if you really see the light. You are the reason that there’s a world at all, and if you lose your grip
the
world will surely fall.
It’s time we know the river’s depth, it’s time for you and me, it’s time
that
freedom really meant, really meant being free.
We are where you and I meet, we are what must be done, we are where
the cries of the many, become the voice of the one, we must come to
the
rescue, of a world that’s divided and torn, but first I must know, this is
why I was born.
We are the reason that there’s a world at all, and if we lose our grip I
will
surely fall.
