We don’t realize
When teardrops are rolling
A heart is breaking
“I will survive”

We don’t realize
The hidden fears
And phobias
“I’m scared”

We don’t realize
Shortcuts that spare them their life
Maps without separation of dark and light
“Mommy, why can’t we go there?”

We don’t realize
One close friend
Keeps the smile on for awhile
“I need her”

We don’t realize
Blood bonds
Millions tore and ripped apart
“No, my family”

We don’t realize
The innocent glaze
Dangerous like a fire blaze
“Run”

We don’t realize
A lying cheater
Trying hard
“You’re my best friend”

We don’t realize
The silent laughter
Behind every private joke
“Are they laughing at me?”

We need to think
For others
Till the ball bounces high
The stars gaze
We need to realize and
“Help”
