Who Cares

A rose that can ba a beautiful ruby red
Can turn to blood dripping down a dead mans hand

A flower can mean a sign of love
But also can mean a sign of death

Who knew beautiful things
Could mean your death

What a shame
What a pitty
But really who cares

Another lifeless body is laying in the street
Another helpless child is screaming

But you know what everyone around them is saying
Who cares

Who cares, Its not me
Who cares, I dont need to get into this
My life is complicated enough

But one day someone corners you
And shoots a bullet into your arm
Just so instead of killing you
They can watch you bleed to death

If you scream
Everyone around you will say who cares
Thats what the world has come to

Now you see someone getting beat up in the street

What will you say?
