I took a look out the window of life
And I began to see the truth that lies in our paths
The fear that chases our dreams away
The reality of pain is too much to bear

I took a look out the window of life
And I saw the false happiness, predicted by our leaders
The bid to find a joy
Is lost in the dishonesty of those we call friend

I tool a look out the window of life
And I saw a child go by unfed and unwell
Standing next was one who had it all
What a pain to see a cold heart turn away.

It’s funny how we love
The things that matter only to us
It’s funny how much we want
Others to accept us
But the pain lingers on.

I have too much pain
When I think about the world today
And how much it’s gone wrong

I have too much pain
When I see the Children
Who must lead tomorrow
Die from the pain they suffer today

I have too much pain
And as I lay to sleep
At the end of my day
I wonder
How can I help take the pain away?
