I would pray, but my knees are broken. I would speak, but my words are spoken.
I would cry, but my eyes are dry. I would dream, but I'd have to try.
I would search, but I've been forsaken. I would fear, but my faith is shaken.
I would leave, but there's nowhere to go. I would trust, but I'd have nothing to show.
I would pursue, but they'd call me a fool. I would learn, but I'm sick of school.
I would fly, but I'd have to land. I would sing, but there isn't a band.
I would perform, but no one would clap. I would write, but they'd call me a sap.
I would paint, but I'm color-blind. I would be calm, but I've lost my mind.
I would ask, but I'm too proud. I would listen, but you're too loud.
I would say more, but I'm out of rhymes. I would finish this, but I haven't got the time.
