Tales From the Third World

I'm a third world child getting mad

In this room among rats

Eating the waste the others don't need

Crawling to beg, to live

Tell me mother what time you'll be back

So I'm awake in the dark

Life is hard in these noisy streets

Since dad left us for this selfish dreams

I had a beautiful dream my son

We both rest in peace

All is white in a valley of flowers

No more hunger during empty hours

I scream, but no one hears

I'm screaming from this place

Can you hear me?

I'm screaming, no one cares for us

False answers, tales

We should die soon, so we don't recall

The greedy pigs of this world

Meanwhile, close your eyes my child

So we give up this fight

I have to kill you with pain in my heart

Please don't be scared

Together we'll be in the valley I dreamt

Away from pain, you'll understand

I'm screaming from this place

Can you hear me?

I'm screaming, no one cares for us

False answers, tales
