Photo from Google images – Pink Floyd “Hey You” lyrics
War in the streets
and a fight breaks out
We hear the loud
screams and shouts,
and no one knows
what it’s about.
“Just a couple of
troubled ones hanging around.”
But, aren’t we all troubled?
Aren’t we all wanting
all the answers
that just aren’t coming?
We question the rights
of the proud and the few.
We doubt intentions.
We play fools.
We don’t take the time
to gather the facts.
If we are pushed,
we automatically push back.
To come so far,
we now retrace our steps.
We’re going backwards
to what we’d left.
If we can’t work together,
we can’t rise tall.
We must stand united,
or together we’ll fall.
