Why does the world never stop
When tragedy occurs?
When loved ones die, and stop breathing
Ne’er to return
Why does the caged bird still sing on
Though no one’s there to hear?
When I mourn inside my room
Why does the world not disappear?
Should the ache e’er deign leave,
The pain e’er to depart,
Could another find his way to fix
My sore and wounded heart?
The moon above and stars beside
Seem not to hear my plea
Please oh please cruel world, I beg
Bring my dearest back to me.
