The Angst In Teenage Cries

Brother Daylight, Sister Darkness Oh where do I belong I stand alone in twilight Like a singer, short on song A kite devoid of string A nickel short a dime Unsure of everything A reason without rhyme When I'm down and feeling weary When no one's by my side There's a comfort in believing With my God I do abide I believe that nature holds The cure the world requires But those that worked at nature's cures Branded witches, died by fire Religion fills some gaps for me Faith in my God's unshaken But when I see the hate it's caused And the countless lives its taken I wonder how a brotherhood Or fraternity can be A cause to kill, or murder for Even Christianity I've pondered and I've reasoned What this life's all about No wiser now, than e'er before Still overcast in doubt On the brink of inhumanity Twisted truths and jaded lies The tortured souls of cradled babes And the Angst in teenage cries
