What do we gain?
When we shout and scream.
And we say things to each other,
Which we do not mean
When hurtful things are often said,
Mindless words which harm
Isn’t it better to discuss what’s wrong
With dignity and calm
Don’t walk away when things go wrong
Stay and make things right
For things just don’t get better when
Your simply out of sight
What’s the point in being down
Going to work wearing a frown
Stop your yelling, and think a while
Isn’t it better to wear a smile
For the meaning of togetherness
Is being as a pair
Having mutual respect for each other
Showing that you care
It’s being thoughtful of each other’s needs
We are no longer ‘one’
It’s the little things that mean so much
Which lead us to the sun
