I don’t get it

Why do we do what we do?
Why do we say what we say?
From the highest mountain
To smallest stream
Will we ever understand what we mean?

From the look in the eye
From the first hello
To the final good bye
From body language
Bravado
Say a little Dutch courage

Words can be cheap
Life is cheaper still
Peace in one hand
The other a dream to full fill

I don’t get it
Honey I don’t get it
Game, set and match
Show me a back to scratch
Here are the odds
This life one bet
I don’t get it

Books of knowledge
To be read
Thousand things to do
Before I’m dead
Not enough butter!
Not enough bread!
There so many mouths out there to be fed
Yet the blue sky is filled with lead
Instead
Why do we do what we do?
Then say what we say
Never really expect to pay
I don’t get it do you?

Hello DSL

Truth and honesty, with ourselves first, before anyone else, and by god is that hard, and is there anyone in this world who can say they are there. Until then, i think we will always say what we say, do what we do, and never really understand why.

Touching the deep raw of us all these words my friend.

Max

Like walking into a room and thinking
"What the hell did I come in here for"

We move about sometimes and do things
that later make no sense even to ourselves.

You touch on so many different aspects
of human nature and just roll them out
in lines as if I am sitting there listening
to you express yourself.

At times you make me uncomfortable and I love
that because it provokes thought.

Here, I just shook my head and said, yes,
that's so damn true.

thanks,
andy

Very profound and thought provoking write Dsl, some of these questions i've asked myself.. life is hard to figure out sometimes, and the answers are not always easy to find. Love this much.
