If I were to die in a car accident tomorrow or cancer in a month or a year ...
Who would really care?
What mark did I leave, or what path did I pave?
Whose life did I touch, or did anyone even care?
Did I make a difference, a ripple in the water or change a in the weather?
From here, my life is so little. Simple as they come.
Day to day, I walk the path as I did the night before.
Never heard, I screamed so loud.
Never seen, I beat my fists and pulled my hair.
The walls are built around me. I want to tear them down, free me.
I couldn’t see the writing on the walls, nor could I hear the music in the air.
Who built this wall? Who snuffed the sound?
I want to know why I am here today or even yesterday.
God only knows, why doesn’t He share his secret with me?
Did I make a difference? Did anybody care?
I don’t hear the music, written on the page.
I don’t see the vivid colors, in my rage.
I tried my best, I put myself to the test, but all I found was nothing more than, simplicity.
If I were to die in a car accident tomorrow or cancer in a month or a year …
Who would really care?
Toss my ashes out to sea, and please remember me.
I was the smile in the crowd, the laugh that stole stares and the one who really cared!
