Why, the moon has already gone,

How, the darkness blinds the light.

Who, man's on a run-a-thon,

When, it's a never-ending fight.

-

Why, all hearts are shattered through,

How, the fragments rip my soul.

Who, death discovered what is true,

When, will it ever stop at all?

-

Why, the pain sickens all health,

How, comfort causes more.

Who, we follow blood for wealth,

When, will life ever be sure?

-

Why, all joy is tainted gray,

How, all straight will now bend.

Who, on heart will dare and stay,

When, will it ever end?
