The Answer
I have four questions, four questions to ask. You'll find the answer-if you
remove your mask.
The mask of your fear, and the mask of your pain, the mask of your love, that
you've all gave in vain.
There are only four questions of value in life. Remember these questions when
pain cuts like a knife.
For it can drill you right to the core, and leave you wondering-what is life
for?
You'll find the answer when you take off your mask. Get rid of your crutch,
and throw out your cast.
Put your mask on the floor, and back away slowly. Then you'll know the answer-
it is just one word solely.
I'll give you my questions, just remember the mask! Take three steps back and
concentrate on this task.
1)What in life is most sacred to you?
2)Of what is the spirit made, is question two.
3)What is worth living for? That just leaves four.....
4)Last but not least, what's worth dieing for?
Look high and low, from the sky to the sea-from the earth to the stars,to every
leaf on the trees.
From the scum in the ditch, to the heavens above-I'm sure you've found it--
the answer is LOVE.
