Belief – 23rd July 1985

You’ve been one year living your beliefs
But now you think that you didn’t achieve
So now you are back to eating meat
You know that’s easy, what a relief
…..for you

So you stuff your face with broken flesh
Now you’re a good boy, do as mummy says
Ghosts of victims screaming, watching you eat
“What about the starving? Don’t they eat meat?”

“Well, it’s a boring diet, just potato and pizza”
While a grain of rice is all some get to eat
“Bollocks to belief, that won’t help me live
I can’t help that much, I’ve got nothing to give”

One by one, the pressure can increase
If we stick together and live our beliefs
“Well, of course, it’s horrible but I really need meat”
But how can you forget those unable to eat

Why should I care? Why should I cry?
I don’t want to see a starving child die
…..for you

Another born as another dies
Another laughs as another cries
Another sees as another’s blind
Another forward as another behind

Your son is born and your mother dies
Which way to turn as tears fill your eyes?

Which way to turn as tears fill your eyes?

Your children see but your husband is blind
Which way to turn, what will you find?
Will you step forward with your children behind?
Which way to turn, what will you find?
