i don't know.

Here we are
Walking through the darkness of a broken world
Asking why
Here we are
Stumbling on this road so rough beneath our feet
And where it leads
We can't see

 being human can be so doggone frustrating times.

what in the world is going on here? 
why is all of this happening?
whatever happened to love and unity?
in the words of rodney king -- why can't we all just get along??????

and Lord, isn't unity a thing that you desire us to have? are you pleased with so much division?

it just doesn't make sense.
i don't understand.
i don't know.

All we need to know
Is that we're walking with the keeper of our souls
And all we need to know
Is that the life we live has never been our own

In the middle of the raging and storm
You are shelter from the night
In the middle of the blinding pain
You are the guiding light

Your Rodney King quote made me smile. I've used it many times, especially in LA traffic!

A bit of trivia for you: The original trial of the officers that beat him, which sparked the 1992 LA Riots, was held in Simi Valley where I live.
