Beyond Our Suffering

 

What we see now is only a fraction

 

Bound to learn the hard way

This is the human condition

There is nothing that can be said

To stop us from making mistakes

When I look to myself as a source of ending pain

No matter how many times before I’ve failed

 

It seems our problems solve themselves

When we look beyond us to those truly in hell

 

The more I focus on myself

Then the more helpless that I become

So why not erase this point of view?

My suffering is trivial (Beyond our suffering)

Compared to those who know real agony

 

It seems our problems solve themselves

When we look beyond our suffering

It seems our problems solve themselves

When we look beyond our suffering

 

My trials seem insignificant now

 

Why won’t we look beyond us?

Why won’t we look beyond our despair?

It seems our problems solve themselves

When we look to those truly in hell

 

Personal redemption cannot change the world

Unless we lay down our lives for those who still suffer
