Sure, but we *must* know what we can do, what makes sense to take upon -

The more I see, the more I hear, the more I find fewer
answers. I close my mind, I shut it out but you know it's
getting harder to calm down, to reason out, to come to terms
with what it's all about! I'm uptight, can't sleep at night
I can't pretend everything's alright! My ideals, my sanity
they seem to be deserting me but to stand up and fight I know
we have six million reasons!
