Obedience

Sometimes it’s hard to know what’s right
Should we back down or stand and fight?

Once, long ago, it all seemed simple;
Black and white; right and wrong.
But everyone has their own story,
You’ve got to understand the song.

The world bombards you with it’s opinions
But in the end it’s up to you.

If you think what you’re doing is wrong, don’t do it
Sound’s simple on the page.
But when I can’t obey my body
How can I obey the world?
