Someone Speaks

? Have you read the paper?"
 Said the man in the overcoat
 "Girl of twenty-one just hung herself
 Isn't it a shame?"
 After all the words have made me feel
 What I wanted
 "I am so alone," is all she left
 By her bedside
 "Have you seen the child who has no name"
 Said the little girl
 "Have you seen him playing in the street
 Hopelessly insane"
 After all the tears just caved him in
 He still wonders
 After all the seconds passed away
 I just turned
 Have you heard the story at the end
 Of another day?
 Did it make a gesture in your soul?
 Did it go away?
 As you held the promise of the sun
 And tomorrow
 As you woke to find that you have changed
 Now you're older
 Someone speaks
 Someone speaks
 Someone speaks
 You will listen
 Someone weeps
 Someone speaks
 Someone speaks
