Inward Looking Out

from Fuzzy Dice by Schweitzer

lyrics

We owe it to the children
to shelter them from all the sadness
We owe it to the hopeless
to raise them up above the madness
We owe it to ourselves
to look for the happiness, do we, do we ever?

We owe it to the sun
to burn away the filth that hides it
We owe it to the ocean
to cleanse the refuse that defiles it
We owe it to the Earth
to look for an answer, are we, do we ever?

We owe it to our past
to heal the hateful and belligerent
We owe it to our future
to teach the frightened and the ignorant
We owe it to ourselves
to make a lasting effort, will we, will we ever?

We owe it to the seasons
now the summer seems too cold
We owe it for the reason
that because of us the Earth’s too old too soon

We owe it to the children… we owe it to the truth
We owe it to the sun… we owe it to the Earth
(to save the world’s imperiled oceans)
We owe it to our souls… (to wipe away the tear stains)
We owe it to the seasons… we owe it for the reason…
that we owe it to ourselves, to look… do we, will we ever
