A girl sits crying In the bathroom corner. Just use another bathroom, Just leave her alone She will be fine The next day, The girl is not crying. And people move on. A boy comes in, His face black and blue. Just look away, Just don't ask questions He will be fine Two weeks ahead, The bruises are gone. And people move on. A child's screams, Heard across the street. Just lock the door, Just close the blinds They will be fine The child is murdered, They'll never recover. And still, People move on

People Move On

A child's screams, Heard across the street. Just lock the door, Just close the blinds They will be fine The child is murdered, They'll never recover. And still, People move on
