We Are One
it’s hard for me to live
it’s hard for me to give of myself
especially when it’s not something –
you’ve ever done
after all when it’s all said and done
we are one,
and it’s hard to cut in half
what is one
inside i know what i am
in reality i am inside the tube
i am the sand,
time passes by,
it’s harder to live
it’s been harder, so much harder
we are one,
but maybe we could be two
light a candle for the mass produced
say a prayer for me and you
James Garratt – February 2002

“we are one,
but maybe we could be two
light a candle for the mass produced
say a prayer for me and you”

Thank you I did like this – it’s the phrase, mass produced. Appeals to me
