little did she know

She was a little girl
With a crown on her head

She said she wanted to fly
That she wanted to touch the sky

She grew up
And looked thin

With sweat covering her forehead
She said she wanted a rest

That she cried over the smallest things
She said it was too much

She was fed up
She couldn't take it anymore

She said she needed a good night of sleep
That she missed the old days

When she was just a kid
Who wondered

Why do people hurt each other?
Little did she know

That the answer was
'Why can't they?'
