Until It's Too Late
A boy you'll never know
Bangs away on his drum
The rhythm courses through him
Feeling something other than numb
This boy you'll never know
Is told to never play again
That he needs to smarten up
And he's been worse since then
He's screaming
He's crying
He's sinking
He's dying
A girl you'll never know
Pours her soul out on a page
Feeling nothing but freedom
Finally getting out from her cage
This girl you'll never know
Is forced to shut the book
Being locked up once again
Crying over what has been took
Her happiness
Her light
Her wings
Her flight
These people you'll never know
?Might be with you at the moment
You see them nearly everyday
Soon you'll wonder where they went
You called it a ''joke''
You said it was ''nothing''
But they cut deeper than knives
The pain They caused them was something
Their world is broken
Beyond repair
Their life is gone
?No longer there
