all the children of the earth
abused and bullied alike
want someone to know that they're there
so one night they were all crying
at the same time
none of them knew why
they just started to cry

everything that happened
hit them at once
the bruises and black eyes
chased them down in a hunt

and it got to them everything
nothing could stop the pain
an angel came down from heaven
and they gave them the blame

but a voice into the silence
calmed them quick as could be
so they looked into the sky
and saw
not and angle
but a key

"where are you from
why do you come"
the children all called out
like a beat of a drum

"what matters is not me
it's the pain for i have come"
and the key came into them
and spoke like a bomb

we all have the same story
we all tried to fight for glory
we all lost
is this the cost?

the true bringing of madness is coming
you can't stop it
so come with me children
to a new place

where everything that's happened
won't matter
what they did to you
will not be seen
heard
or thought of

so come with me
to a place
where hurt can't be spoke of

they heard of this place
and gladly said yes
so the key said
"good
that is the end of your test"

so all looking at each other
without hesitation
on the bridge of sadness
where life had placed them

they jumped
for madness would not have caught them

but before they hit the ground
the key came out of them
"i didn't want them to jump  
i just wanted to help them"

for their hearts had been locked
he wanted to unlock them
but on the inside
he couldn't see
he didn't have time to stop them
