This is for the kids

Up at 2 AM

Lost in a book

Or drowning in tears.

This is for the kids

Who love music

More than those around them.

This is for the kids

Dying to be heard

In a world that won't listen.

This is for the kids

Who have ever felt alone.

I hope one day they realize,

They are not.
