Why are you crying?
When the sun is shining?
When the grass is so green?
When you are young, just a teen?

Why are you crying?
While people are smiling?
When love is in the air?
When there’s laughter everywhere?

Why are you crying?
when you can hear?
when you can see?
when you can breathe?

Why are you crying?
Why are you crying?
why are you so blind?
so deaf?
