irelands lost spirit

living in my own home was good
but now i feel the spirit has died
im not talking on my home
but my very own countrie

the people aren't the same
the land is being tarnished
the mood of the countrie
is bringing me down

the land i live in is beautiful
but the peoples attuide is not
i feel trapped in this island of anger
a island playing the blame game

the island of ireland is dying
the island of ireland spirit has died
the fight for rights have been buried deep down
for those who are under represented

the island of ireland has died to me
i feel all alone i feel a bit annoyed
have we given up on our island
our have most my people gone to greedy
and to self absorbed into there own thinking

i feel like the last
i feel at times im alone
i just want happyness
but why can't we all just
unite together and pull it off

I don't know if it's your current location within Ireland or what, but I was just there a few months ago in County Clare and found it charming and the people warm and friendly with a lot of "Irish charm." I hope your woes are temporary and that things improve for you.

Times do get like that when the buble bursts, but you know as well as I that the Irish are tough and resilient, it will change!

I am sorry y0u feel so down, but your words could be meant for many places around the globe. We must look underneath the cloak and would be surprised at times. Your lines were very potent.

hariksna says it very well scarwolve - and you are not alone in thinking this way, but the spirit is the piece of us that rises back up and carries on. be resilient yourself and those around you will follow.
