Looking for more!

by Sarah Hotard   Dec 6, 2004


Take off the make-up
Take off the lies
For once just listen
clear the disguise
an untold story
A brand new day
someone else's faith
begins to fade away

No one notices
the tears this young girl cries
no one notices the time she has died
the sinking in her chest was caused by all there lies
of love, faith, and hope
it was scrutinized

No body listens to her talk
no body cares what she has to say
her broken dreams fall to the floor
as she screams
She's looking for more

Another holy scripture
written in stone
Another criminal
put away to pay his toll
Another Jesus is crusified
Another child is victimized

Another man is put away
Another person blames the day
on unhappy thinkers and speakers galore
another closed another open door

No body listens to her talk
no body cares what she has to say
her broken dreams fall to the floor
I am looking for more...
