If only... If only they hadn't gotten sick and lost their jobs and their benefits If only they hadn't been abused as child they wouldn't have landed in juvey and been a criminal If only they were strong enough to never reach for relief from life's problems never drink or drug or have *** with strangers If only they were perfect, like me. And didn't waste their resources on dinners and drinks and casinos, like me. If only the never quarreled with their family over things past or get fired, like me. They wouldn't have any problems, just like me So why should I be told to care?
