Bitter Rain

The world's too much for me
It's getting so
Too much needs doing here
That I can't do
For me, it's not too bad
I can't complain
But somewhere a kid without a coat
Stands in the bitter rain

The world's too much for me
It's like the end
Too many helpless ones
I can't defend
I can protect myself
From cold and pain
But somewhere a hungry kid
Walks in the bitter rain

The world's too much for me
Although I've tried
Too much goes on, too much
I can't abide
The old give orders
And the young are slain
And somewhere a bleeding kid
Dies in the bitter rain
