Evidence of Cause


Now:

I see the truck
In the ditch
The inexperience
The wreckage


Flashback!

The snow is pounding
With such fury
The car in back
Comes 'round in hurry!

He sees the face
A scared young boy!
While his Mom and Dad play
With a 5,000 pound toy

THEY JAM ON THE BRAKES!

And to save a life,
The trucker avoids,
Their unwanted strife...

A HEROIC ACT!

As the trucker swerves
To miss the driver
Who had the nerve


Now:

It's a bright sunny day
The birds fly free
Not a snowflake around
None you can see

A truck in the ditch
On it's side it will be
"I can drive better than that,
most definitely!"


Narrator:

Life is just like the highway
We see other lives in wreckage.
Evidence of cause is gone.
The event of heroism has escaped.
All that is is seen,
Is the big "mistake"

And we think we can do better?
