I hate this world

Without you it has one less beautiful soul

I sit here seething 

Thinking of how good people die while others keep breathing

How can I make the world a better place

All the while trying to hide the tears on my face

I want to be part of a standing ovation

But how can I do that with no motivation

To change the world one child at a time

To give all I have, every single dime

But instead I sit here in the dark

All my interests gone, not even a spark

Someday I hope to put up a fight

To get up and make everything right 

Until then I'll just say that I'm fine

Waiting for the day I get to shine
