Orphan

Written By: Brent Beamer

The orphan stands strong

Belligerent boy and all

To bother was just too much

Your love, never enough

You couldn't keep them around

Fighting the silent sound

A baby, unborn

You want more, family unformed

Why do you test me?

The why in my raging

Why do you test me?

To die in my living

Put me in a cage and watch me cry

Watch me burn down

Inadmissible to say you cared

You were nowhere around

But, maybe baby you can watch me cry

Self built from the ground

Alone in their mind,

The orphan stands in a crowd
