Lyrics
Never Born
Who would you be
We will never know
We can only imagine
How you would’ve grown
And now, before we fall
We stop, we recall
You had no choice
You had no voice
You, our never born
Maybe you’d be good
Maybe a little bad
Never to be happy
Never to be sad
So it goes, we close our eyes
We stop, we realize
You had no choice
You had no voice
You, our never born
And so to you
We sing this song
Your time for living, was never given
Yet still, you belong
Frog prince on the lam
Damsel in disguise
What places might you travel
What sunsets might you rise
And though, you drew no name
We stop, we proclaim
You had no choice
You had no voice
You, our never born
And then again
You might know only pain
Mercy comes in many forms
Who are we to say
We hear, your soundless cry
We stop, we ask why
You had no choice
You had no voice
You, our never born
And so to you
We sing this song
Your time for living, was never given
Yet still, you belong
Years will come and go
Never here to stay
You were and yet you weren’t
Yet still you remain
We know, there’s no undo
We stop, we know it for true
You had no choice
You had no voice
You, our never born
To love and be loved
Is all we’ll ever keep
Nothing more will go with us
Once we go to sleep
Our hearts, they are all yours
To take, through all your doors
You had no choice
You had no voice
You, our never born
And so to you
We sing this song
Your time for living, was never given
Yet still, you belong
