No Self Pity

Electric light shines bright
But agains the sun it is dim
Jet airplanes sure travel fast
But how fast is the speed of light
And no matter how low you are
There is always somebody lower
And no matter how slow you are
There is always somebody sloer
Modern day structures are fantastic
But have you seen a butterfly's wings
Man has created symphonies
But have you heard a blackbird sing
And no matter how dumb you are
There is always somebody dumber
And no matter how fine you are
There is always somebody finer
I am blind
I am blind
But I see behind my eyes
Man can make sweet red wine
But have you tasted a mountain stream
Hollywood has created movies
But listen to the color of your dreams
And no matter how upbeat you are
There is no such thing as ugly
And no matter how bad you are
There is always someone to forgive
And no matter how bad you are
There is always someone to forgive you
And no matter how fine you are
There is always somebody finer
And no matter how low you are
There is always somebody lower
And no matter how fast you are,
There is always somebody faster
Faster, faster, faster, faster, faster, faster, and faster, and faster
And slower, and lower, and finer, and finer, and slower, and faster, and lower...
