Waste

Don't waste my time
don't waste my life
scream the kid 
from inside
locked in a room
when they wants to be outside
being scolded
for being a child...

Hours and hours
away from home 
away from the place
where they belong
mom is not there
to come to calm
the pain of being hurt
and feeling alone...

Don't waste my time 
don't waste my life 
scream the kid
nobody minds
the training s/he can't scape
the world is blind 
and nothing will change
until we open our eyes.
