For Nothing

Little girl why do you act so sad

Did mommy and daddy go away

Leave you stand on your own two feet

But you get knocked down every day

Little boy why do you act so mad

Are you out here on your own

I hear you screaming

You're never going back to that hell they call a home

It's you against the world where nobody wins

Nobody understands what they need to give

So take your sides, give up your lives

For nothing

How do you describe a broken heart in a child

How do you say you're doing fine knowing it's a lie

How do you close your eyes to no kiss goodnight, to no one by your side

Who holds your hand when you're scared and death is at your side

And it's you against the world where nobody wins

Nobody understands what they need to give

So take your sides, give up your lives

It's you against the world where nobody wins

Nobody understands what they need to give

So take your sides, give up your lives

For nothing

For nothing
