Invitation to a reunion with Pink Floyd.

We turn away
when we see what feels uncomfortable

We turn away
when we feel unwilling

When we do not want to see
but have peace from the unpleasant
we rather look
in another direction

No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It’s not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there’ll be
No more turning away?

[Verse 4, On the Turning Away by David Gilmour]
