Nobody Cares

Nobody cares that a girl is beaten for disobeying her father Nobody cares that a boy is killed for trying to break up a fight Nobody cares that a baby is drowned for crying too much But I care… Its not right for people to turn the other cheek Nobody cares that a gay man is stripped of his clothes and forced to walk out in the street Nobody cares that a transvestite is revealed of a secret in front of their friends Nobody cares that a lesbian is forced to make a ***** so her parents don’t find out But I care… Its not right for people to turn the other cheek Nobody cares that a girl is forced into sex, beaten when she refuses Nobody cares that a boy is forced to clean up after his mother’s flaws Nobody cares that a group of friends gets arrested because they look suspicious But I care… Its not right for people to turn the other cheek Nobody cares that a girl is beaten for disobeying her father Nobody cares that a gay man is stripped of his clothes and forced to walk out in the street Nobody cares that a girl is forced into sex, beaten when she refuses But I care… Its not right for people to turn the other cheek
