"Some of the best and most beautiful things cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart." Helen Keller


Waiting...
For something...
For nothing...
For the world to wake up
And tell me it'll be okay.
I'm not sure I know how
To say what I want to say

But I guess that's alright
I guess that that's okay...

I know they said the world is full of holes
But the dirt is full of sand...

And yeah, I know things will never be the same
But I'd still like to understand

I guess what I am trying to say
The point I'd like to make...

is...

We're all only human
But does that mean...

I must be judged by my peers?

I am a child...
Bred of a mother's fear of man
Must I too fear like mother did?

Do you yet understand...?
