WHY IS IT SO EASY ?
 

Why is it so easy,
to find good in your friends,
yet when you look at yourself,
the finding of good ends?

Why it is so easy,
to wish others the best,
and when it comes to yourself,
you are full of worry and unrest.

You look at your friends,
say nice things all day,
and then look at yourself,
and find only bad things to say.

You feel so UP about others,
and so DOWN about you,
you are full of self negative,
a lot to put yourself through.

When others say nice things,
or when they try to do,
you are sure they are insincere,
and trying to hurt you.

We need to love,
it starts in your being,
aimed at the YOU,
that you don't like seeing.

How come they are so good,
and you're so bad,
and they are so right,
and you're so wrong?

You've got to pull yourself up,
which only you can do,
you've got to believe inside,
that you're the greatest too!
