Someone Speaks

?Have you read the paper?"

Said the man in the overcoat

"Girl of twenty-one just hung herself

Isn't it a shame?"

After all the words have made me feel

What I wanted

"I am so alone," is all she left

By her bedside

"Have you seen the child who has no name"

Said the little girl

"Have you seen him playing in the street

Hopelessly insane"

After all the tears just caved him in

He still wonders

After all the seconds passed away

I just turned

Have you heard the story at the end

Of another day?

Did it make a gesture in your soul?

Did it go away?

As you held the promise of the sun

And tomorrow

As you woke to find that you have changed

Now you're older

Someone speaks

Someone speaks

Someone speaks

You will listen

Someone weeps

Someone speaks

Someone speaks
