"Good Intentions"

alone and dark we stand
in the face of a strange new land
we bring to them our sight
a wisdom found without the light
and extend a friendly hand

we are ourselves dissedent
from a darkened land we are sent
here now to be oppressed
by a people who "know what's best"
what the best intentions meant

after trying long now
we'll never understand just how
they claim to love us all
when all we did was answer call
and take a respectful bow
