Why Is It So

The children wonder and hope to find 
They try to reach out for some kind 
But all around the people stare 
The children just want a little care 
 
And you who’ve lived six score or more 
And you who flesh and blood did bare 
Must surely gaze out at the sight 
Of all the youth, amassed in fright 
 
And know that in your hands did lay 
The power sent to find a way 
But through neglect or lack of sense 
Have left us all so frightened and tense 
 
I don’t know 
Why is it so? 
Tell me why 
I really want to know 
 
And all the nights we’ve wondered stray 
And all the days we’ve slept away 
For if a purpose still exists 
On chartered course befell a mist 
 
And in the rubble of glass and stone 
Is left a child to stand alone 
To wonder through the land made bare 
And stumble on the grave of care 
 
I don’t know 
Why is it so? 
Tell me why 
I really want to know
