This tragedy tonight..

(bullying can hurt)

Didn't you know that your words could all sting
That they could bring laughter or some brokenness bring
Didn't you know that those tears in their eyes
Were not so much from pain; but  the element of surprise?

I tried to forewarn you, that you were going too far:
That those words you were saying, would end up as a scar..
I tried to point out, that those things were not right
And now we are seeing it: this tragedy tonight..

You joked in your cruelty about that other one's name
Pointed your finger and showered them with blame
You ridiculed those people who weren't similar to you
And laughed as others struggled to do what they do

I tried to forewarn you, that you were going too far
That those words you were saying, would end up as a scar
I tried to point out, that those things were not right
And now we are seeing it: this tragedy tonight.

You in your grouplets that all gather and gaulk
Seem to find your happiness in your mischievous talk
You will paint out a picture for the one you will judge
And then leave them to struggle:  unable to budge..

I tried to forewarn you, that you were going too far
That those words you were saying, would end up as a scar
I tried to point out, that those things were not right
And now we are seeing it: this tragedy tonight.

If you were that person  you were bullying around
If you were the needy one without help to be found
Wouldn't you be hoping that someone would care
Yes but you keep hurting with your ominous air...

I tried to forewarn you, that you were going too far
That those words you were saying, would end up as a scar
I tried to point out, that those things were not right
And now we are seeing it: this tragedy tonight.
