Lyrics

How and Why and Who am I

When will I, be leaving this womb.
I can hear, a commotion in the room
It's so warm inside, curled up tight.
But I’m increasingly attracted to the light.
How and Why and Who am I

When will I, be fully grown.
How on earth, am I supposed to be shown
How I am to be, as good as gold.
As I come tumbling down into this world.
How and Why and Who am I

Why will I,
feel happy and sad.
How will I
recognize the good from the bad
And from which side,
will I have to choose.
Why when some people win,
others must lose.
How and Why and Who am I

And as I grow stronger,
and begin to learn to play.
The games of children,
who’ll be adults one day
To face the bully boys,
or to turn away.
To reflect upon all of this
and fight another day,
or find another way
How and Why and Who am I

When will I, see a world
that’s fully grown.
When on earth,
bad seeds have been sown
The good die young,
so that others live on.
Yet no one will ever know,
who cast the first stone.
How and Why and Who am I.
