I'VE SEEN PEOPLE GROWING OLD ALONE
I'VE SEEN PEOPLE SELLING IN FRONT OF SCHOOLS
I'VE SEEN LIFE, A LIFE THAT BEGINS
THROWN IN A BAG, LIKE GARBAGE
I'VE SEEN THE AIR POISONED BY THE LEAD
AND THIRSTY LANDS IN TOO MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD
IT'S NOT LONG SINCE I LIVE, SINCE I EXIST
AND I SWEAR THERE ARE THINGS THAT I'VE SEEN
I ONLY WISH
THAT AROUND ME
PEOPLE WERE MORE TRUE
BESIDES
EVERY AGE
IDEOLOGY OR FLAG
I JUST ASK
TO DO SOMETHING TOGETHER
SOMETHING IN ORDER TO
FINISH SOON
THE THINGS I'VE SEEN
I'VE SEEN THE SKY TURNING HEAVY
COVERED BY THE SHADOW OF A HUGE CLOUD
I'VE SEEN THE WATER THAT NOBODY CAN DRINK
I'VE SEEN AND I WISH I HAVEN'T
I JUST HOPE THAT
ABOVE ME
PEOPLE THAT GIVE ORDERS
WILL KNOW WHAT TO DO
AND IF THEY KNOW
THEY SHOULD AT LEAST ANSWER US
I JUST HOPE
THAT THE FUTURE YOUTH
WON'T SEE
NOT EVEN ON TV
THE THINGS I'VE SEEN
AND I WONDER WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO
SURELY, TO FIGHT AND NOT JUST TALK
IN ORDER TO FINISH, TO PUT AN END TO THIS HORROR
I WONDER IF LOVE CAN BE ENOUGH.
