I try to save them but I only make it worse drowning in the oil that was meant to be a cure I see them disemboweled and I can't help but feel for the smallest of lives and you think I'm a fool but I'm painfully aware maybe my tears mean nothing but to me they mean the world I wouldn't dare to spare them on something that didn't matter I wouldn't share them with someone that didn't matter to me
