a release of air

there can be reason for the world to sigh

but none for us to speak out of our turn

what seems so fair is not so in your eye

we bring the product but you will not buy

you work so hard for what we did not earn

there can be reason for the world to sigh

into those actions we are not to pry

those are the meanings we could not discern

what seems so fair is not so in your eye

allow the messenger to hear your reply

while the deep waters slowly steam and churn

there can be reason for the world to sigh

those furthest have most reason not to cry

for no good reason but for great concern

what seems most fair is not so in your eye

we do not answer when the insects fly

deeds are the means by which we have to learn

there can be reason for the world to sigh

what seems so fair is not so in our eye
