I don't know why Some birds don't fly I guess they all have their ways I know the Lord makes no mistakes I don't know why Some people try To throw stones at others' homes To teach them right from wrong But what if you knew me personally If I struck a chord What if you saw me Vivid and clearly Would I be ignored If we could talk We both could listen Understand how we are different Then maybe we could see That we are the same I don't know why Fear swells inside When we are faced with difference This world is too small to be scared of it If we could talk We both could listen Understand how we are different Then maybe we could see We are the same
