There are no rainbows in my sky
No music in my ears
The stars no longer twinkle
Dreams replaced by fears
Rivers still run deep
The mountains still high
Oceans still azure blue
A desert still so dry
Where is all the beauty?
The world has fallen from grace
I used to love waking up
Now I fear and loathe this place
I need a small miracle
Something to restore my faith
In all of humanity
I want some back of what I gave
I want the stars in my sky
The feeling of loving life
I want to see good things
To be light as a flying kite
To see human kindness
Feel the magic it can bring
For my eyes to shine happily
For my heart to once again sing
