Why Not?
Cried a tear wiped it dry,
Pushed my fingers in my eye.
Pulled my heart out by the stem
Then pushed it back in again.
Cut my hand off with a knife
To stop my pain and my strife.
My wounds got infected,
I'm no longer protected.
I hate the world and my face
So go ahead and close the case.
Mommy left and Daddy died
All the while I sat and cried.
Little Timmy is dead and gone,
His pain went on for so long.
Pushed my fingers in my eye.
Pulled my heart out by the stem
Then pushed it back in again.
Cut my hand off with a knife
To stop my pain and my strife.
My wounds got infected,
I'm no longer protected.
I hate the world and my face
So go ahead and close the case.
Mommy left and Daddy died
All the while I sat and cried.
Little Timmy is dead and gone,
His pain went on for so long.
