Never

The world can be an ugly thing

And some will never know.


They'll take blissful ignorance

As far as it will go.


Some will never see heartbreak

Or sense the fading sands.


Some will never frown and some

Will never understand.


The world can be an ugly thing

And some will seize the day.


They'll always hear the music

And they'll never see decay.


Some will be wrapped cozy,

Spoonfed their happy end.


Something I will never have;

A reason to pretend.
