Live Again
No one really listens to the dead voices
That try to climb out of a dead box
Hidden in a dead society
Full of life.
No one really looks at the desperate people
That try to make it by in a desperate world
Reaching with desperate hands
Full of nothing.
No one really feels the lonely children
That try to smile at the lonely hour
Wishing upon a lonely star
Full of hope.
No one really tastes the bitter hearts
That try to warm up to the bitter cold
Hoping for a bitter evening
Full of warmth.
Listen to life.
Look past the nothing.
Feel the hope.
Taste the warmth.
Live again.
