• Who made the young boy believe he couldn't beat the test?
    Who said that as a human being he was different from all the rest?
    Who was it that stole the innocence of a young girl?
    Who made it so she no longer bore her curls?

    When was it decided that this boy couldn't grin?
    When did someone make it so the boy had no kin?
    When did the little girl fall asleep inside a wicked dream?
    When was it decided that this little girl had no gleam?

    Why is it that the young boy is so disdained?
    Why did this young boy become contained?
    Why has the young girl forgotten her words?
    Why would the young girl want to be with the birds?

    Where did the little boy become condemned?
    Where did this little boy learn to be so fremed?
    Where did the little girl begin her quest?
    Where did this little girl fall from the best?

    What is it that makes the young boy cry?
    What is it that causes the young boy to be shy?
    What is it that makes the young girl say 'Goodbye'?
    What is it that causes the young girl to fly?

    How can such a little boy have nothing to give?
    When he has the world at his feet and a life to live?
    How can such a little girl have nothing to give?
    When she has the world at her feet and a life to live?

    When we all have so much left to give;
    Why is that young can't live?
    Where did we go wrong back in time?
    What can we do to make up that forgotten dime?
    Who is it that tore these lives away?
    How do we make it better some day?

    With so much to give and a heart full of gold;
    Lend a hand to a child who can't be told.
