Wake
One morning I woke up early, Wished to enjoy the day surely, So i walked down the street slowly, But all I saw was cruelty. A man beat his world, A woman sold her soul, A child sold for gold, And no one cared for the old. A man awakened 'for he'd dreamt, A woman soiled in ornament, A child rolling to darkness and A talent lost for compliments. None waited to bask in the sun's light, None dared to resolve petty fights, All magnificence lost in flight, 'till there was nothing but the night. So i cried at the top of my voice, Begged them to review their choice, To not be cold as ice, And there was no harm in being nice. And they tell me its alright, It'll all be gone by the night, There's no reason to worry, Oh but you must hurry, And join the rest in the race, You are not a special case, Just stop looking at your face, And never wake up in early morning's grace.
