Sometimes I cry
Because I see people who don't know they should
People whose lives are so hard
That death would be a step up

Sometimes I cry
Because the world is dreary
Filled with sadness and despair
As if people have forgotten how to care

Sometimes I cry
Because my heart sinks in its own depression
And all I can do to save it is watch it sink

Sometimes I cry
Because I see so much greed
And subsequent corruption

Sometimes I cry
Because I see hearts
That are blatently obscene
Having skipped black and gone straight to green

Sometimes I cry
Because I see people with knives in their back
But the world has made them too numb to feel

Sometimes I cry
Because i see so much conniving and deceit
And it seems to carry more weight
Not to mention pay more money than honesty

Sometimes I cry
Because I see people dying
In wars that only aid the rich in lining their pockets
With the blood of the innocent and poor

Sometimes I cry
For those who have become so tattooed with footprints
That they have become more of a doormat than a person

Sometimes I cry
Because I am so lonely
I think I am the only person left

Sometimes I cry
Because I see people who don't know how to stand up on their own
So they continue to get knocked down whenever they get up

Sometimes I cry
Because I see so much deception every where I look
And feel helpless to change any of it
So empathy is all the comfort I can provide to anyone

Sometimes I cry
In hopes of drowning some of the evil in this world

Sometimes I cry
Because I am alive
And I can stil feel

Sometimes I cry
Because my heart pumps only tears
Having cried so many bloody tears

Sometimes I cry
Because I don't know how to stop
Or dry my tears of old

Sometimes I cry
For the therapy of it

And sometimes I cry
Just because I don't know what else to do.
