What a waste

WHAT A WASTE

Moonlight magic, music in the air

Feel immortal, young enough to live forever

It all changed so fast, love and laughter torn to tears

They were too young to die

What a waste

Gifted children they had a dream to fly

Years of learning, years of waiting, anticipating

Now we’ve lost the best, just shooting stars across the desert

They were too brave to die

What a waste

Hungry people in a barren land

Wasted bodies, empty eyes see no future in the sunrise

There’s no hope here, too little for too many

They were only born to die

What a waste

So what did you do with this gift called life

Live every moment, growing with each new experience

Or did you let it slide, passing years in empty hours

While it was too soon to die

What a waste
