    Story Behind the Song
    This song was a piece of advice, which I often give without being called upon, generous gal that I am.

    Lyrics
    I think I see two kinds of people
    walking the streets
    watching out of windows
    I think I see two kinds of people
    running away
    stepping on toes
    and I don't think the divisions are obvious
    labels don't always
    curl on so slickly
    sometimes money is quite consistent
    while character evaporates
    surprisingly quickly
    and it's not if you're poor
    or you're rich
    or blessed with great beauty
    or sleeping in a ditch
    and it's not whether you're always
    told you're the best
    or whether they only
    say that in jest
    I think
    and again, this is just
    my humble opinion
    that red and white make pink
    while all the colors mixed together
    are just an oblivion
    and I see
    that this is not
    a question of society
    either you're real or you're not
    and the wise and the lovers will see what you've got
    and as trite as it sounds
    you're just being yourself
    with a splash of a partner
    and a dose of a friend
    learning the hard way they'll figure out later
    what it is you hold close
    and what else you pretend
    and maybe the truth you already uncovered
    you just didn't notice the way that it shone
    or maybe the important things don't need to be discovered
    or perhaps they're only present
    when we've moved on
