Some questions, CAN YOU?
Can you
find beauty in things not pleasant to the eyes?
Can you
be nice to people you don't recognize?

Can you
find sunshine, on a rainy day?
Can you
remain silent when you have things to say?

Can you
fight when you're tired to the bone?
Can you
call it quits, leave well enough alone?

Can you
be ok, in the lonely moments?
Can you
stay strong in the midst of disappointments?

Can you
take it all in stride?
Can you
in the face of chaos, pocket your pride?

Can you
wear a smile, when you want to cry?
Can you
be OK in the blink of an eye?

Can you
believe in things you can't, see?
Can you
hear the music, if it's off key?

Can you
really expect tomorrow to come?
Can you
still feel pain when you're numb?

Can you
get up and do what needs to be done?
Can you
figure out when it's time to cut and run?

Can you
still believe when you know there is no way out?
Can you
change your opinion when you know beyond a shadow of doubt?

Can you
be kind to someone you have a dislike for?
Can you
keep the peace, wipe out an old score?
