I lay scattered before time helplessly
Which I see slipping away very slowly
from my unwilling hand gradually!
What should I call it? My inability?
Ignorance? Irresponsibility?
Weakness? Destiny?
Is that my failure to say my need?
Is that because I didn't greed?
Is that because I didn't plead?
Well, now I shout with my might
IF what I didn't do was alone right
I'll do them now to give a strong fight.
