World, forgotten child

forsaken dream

In silence grieves

World, a mourning sky

a weeping sea

Abonded lies

Lost is the cadence of the heart,

Broken strings, a promise torn apart

Lost is the music of the soul,

Dying echo, a story yet untold.

World, forgotten words

forsaken love

In silence yearns

World, a whispered song

a gentle sign

Discarded burns

Lost is the memory of time,

Broken wires, a vision out of line

Lost is the chorus of life,

Fading air borne away to die

World, forgotten faith

forsaken hope

In silence falls

World, a murmured wish

a uttered cry

Rejected calls

World, clinging to the sun

World, a promise yet to come

World, clutching at a dream

Of the few who rise to redeem

World...
