Romesh Senewiratne-Alagaratnam - Looking for the Moon
LOOKING FOR THE MOON
I'm looking for the moon
But it's been and gone so soon
Strange summers seem to whisper from behind
I'm looking for the sun
But when it comes I run for cover
Strange things we've done to the air we breathe
I'm looking for solutions
But the answers seem so funny
A neon light a common sight
A car becomes a human right
But we only see what we're taught to see
We're seeing wood instead of trees
I'm looking for the truth
But everyday I find I struggle
Through a mountain of useless information
I look into the future
Trying to learn the lessons of the past
Not too afraid to throw it all away
And start again.
