Pain

No one's listening
     To the cries
No one's answering
     All the whys
A baby growing up
     In hate
Sex and violence
     Satan's bait
A father looks
     The other way
Hey he'll be okay
     Someday
Turn on the TV
     Close the door
Turn off minds
     Can't deal with more
A mother thinks
     Her job is done
Out the door to,
     Have some fun
She screams at her sons
     Violent ways
He walks away
     In a silent daze
Looked at with
     The eyes of shame
Point the finger
     Shake the blame
Cuts like a knife
     With words and looks
Carries a gun
     Along with books
A father asks what
     He did wrong
Once again
     The same old song
"Then never mind
     I've got to go"
"Ive got no time
     Don't even want to know"
His child screams inside with
     Pain
He should have known
     Always the same
No one's listening
     To the cries
No one's answering
     All the whys
Except
     Jesus
