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
