Never wanted never found
Never cared for never sound
Never needed never seen
Never loved never believed
Never missed never blessed
Never felt never caressed
She’s never heard say a word
Never screamed never dreamed
Never burned never learned
Never paid never stayed
Never cried never died
Never shamed never blamed
Never thought never fought
He’s never seen have a dream
Pasts so different with futures so the same
Oh it’s a shame
What a shame he’s never felt blame
What a shame she’s never felt the love
Such a shame
