Why Do They Make Them Suffer?


Why do they make them suffer?
Why do they cause them such pain?
Why do they treat them so badly?
Why, when there's nothing to gain?

Why are they punished and beaten?
Why, when they did nothing at all?
Why, can anyone tell me...?
Why he was beaten from when he was small?

Why, is there a rhyme or reason?
Why, did he deserve the pain?
Why do they do it, what did he do?
Why was he beaten again and again?

Why, why, oh why did he cry?
Why was he black and blue?
Why did he constantly wish to die?
Why, tell me what did he do?

He did nothing, nothing at all…
All he did, was live…
