TO THE BOY WHO LOST EVERYTHING
Sean Cady
To the boy who lost everything
Even his will to sing
Please don't silence your voice
Please make your joyful noise
Don't hide yourself away
Don't turn from better days
Just because you fell so far
Picking up the pieces of your broken heart
It may not be clear
What you have near
But give it time
And you will find
You have more around you
That you feel you deserve to
To the boy who lost everything
Who felt life's sting
Yes, I know it's unfair
And you'll not want to care
You may feel lost
At what you cost
The lives of those around you
Because you didn't do
Everything you could
But go back in time you would
To right what you wronged
For the life you never longed
But you'd make it right
And put up a fight
But you're where you need to be
And that is all you need
To the boy who lost everything
Who didn't really lose everything
I know it may feel that way
But know at the end of the day
When you look around
And you hear the sound
Of voices that love you
People who care about you
Always remember what you lost
And at what cost
But look ahead and build a life
And know that it will take some time
And remember it will be okay in the end
And if it's not okay, it's not the end
As a wise man said
And he can say it again
