But I Don't

Crying kids out on the street

Struggling to make ends meet

With red eyes and swollen feet

Ready to admit defeat

I should care but I don’t

Politics and pointless wars

Massacres and army tours

Filthy rich and deadly poor

Don’t know what they’re fighting for

I should ask but I don’t

Tsunamis, winds and hurricanes

Deadly drought and Flooding rains

Killing bugs and crashing planes

So many people feel those pains

I should feel but I don’t

We’ve got floods and killing ‘quakes

Disaster humanity makes

Children with their lives at stake

Others catching endless breaks

I should help but I don’t
