somewhere else

i wish i lived somewhere
where people always said hello
if any person moved away
you were sad to see them go

i wish i lived somewhere
where people liked each other
if any person disagreed
you were anxious to discover

what made them think so different
was it some evil spell
or was it perhaps some underneath thing
that you in fact have as well

i wish i lived somewhere
where it was easier to go along
there wasn’t so much hate churned up
where it seems other is so wrong

maybe the place i want to live
maybe it can’t be real
instead i’m left with a world of hate
it is sad but it is how i feel
