One thing, it seems human nature can't abide,
    Believing, it could be on the wrong side.
Pledge allegiance to the,
     Red,White, and Blue.
Not to the grievance of,
      Left, Right, and Untrue.
Where has everyone gone?
Nobody I know is visible here.
Will at least a few return?
What happens if none do?
Can I spend a long time here by myself?
Will it be worthwhile, if at all.
I want to remain because I need to motivate them to return, regardless of what happens.
Do I have a chance of success?
Well, I'm clueless right now, but I'm going to stay here to be available to others.

Under The Bridge

    Well you know the world doesn’t
Care if you lose or win
Ain’t nothing gonna stop it
It will continue to spin

It doesn’t matter if you have a broken
Heart or if there’s tears in your eyes
The Sun and the Moon will never
Fail to set and rise

So there’s no need for you to spend
All your time rolling in your sorrow
Because dusk will turn into night
And dawn will turn into tomorrow

So you put your trust in love and you
Dreamt of a special enchanted place
And your dreams turned into nightmares
And love slapped you in your face

Well you can cry yourself to sleep
And just let it bother you a smidge
For when morning comes you know
It’s all just water under the bridge
