We went back through our lives...
The first thing apparent was that this world and its people
were often quite wrong.
To conclude that others were wrong
was as far as most of us ever got.
The usual outcome was that people
continued to wrong us and we stayed sore.
Sometimes it was remorse
and then we were sore at ourselves.
But the more we fought and tried to have our own way,
the worse matters got.
As in war, the victor only seemed to win.
Our moments of triumph were short-lived.
If I always do what I've always done,
I'll always get what I've always got.
