Their hearts will break Their skin and bones will break Their hearts will grow fonder Their skin and bones will heal
Their minds are yet more fragile What happens in youth may pass What is learned in youth may be forgotten
What is is hurt in youth may never forget The pain of the memory of the wound The scars they gain will never fade Will always remain as permanent Forget-me-not reminders
Love them while you can Never raise a harmful hand Show them how to change the world
How to rise above How to stand up
To stand up tall To stand up tall
Because their hearts will break Their skin and bones will break Their hearts will grow ever more fond Their skin and bones will heal the world of sorrow
