Can I see another's woe,
And not be in sorrow too?
Can I see another's grief,
And not seek for kind relief?

Can I see a falling tear,
And not feel my sorrow's share?
Can a father see his child
Weep, nor be with sorrow filled?

Can a mother sit and hear an infant groan?
Can a mother sit and hear an infant fear?
No, no! never can it be!
Never, never can it be!

And can He who smiles on all
Hear the wren with sorrows small,
Hear the small bird's grief and care,
Hear the woes that infants bear -

And not sit beside the nest,
Pouring pity in their breast,
And not sit the cradle near,
Weeping tear on infant's tear?

And not sit both night and day wiping all..
Night and day wiping all our tears away?
O no! never can it be!
Never, never can it be!

He doth give His joy to all:
He becomes an infant small,
He becomes a man of woe,
He doth feel the sorrow too.

Think not thou canst sigh a sigh,
And thy Maker is not by:
Think not thou canst weep a tear,
And thy Maker is not near.

O He gives to us His joy, that our grief
To us His joy, that our grief He may destroy:
Till our grief is fled and gone
He doth sit by us and moan.

Lyrics by the William Blake poem 'On another's sorrow'

Half of the time we pass in asking for whys, that time is wasted,
i’ll tell you in a while all we got to do is shine
People around us feel like wolves in the woods
Sharks in the oceans biting up your own roots

Nicely undressed on a saturday night
The guys are glad and the girls allright
Little stranger with that hot red suit
Please take my hand babe i’m feeling blue
What I can’t bear you would bear for me
What you can’t bear i would bear for you
Take me there to a phenomenal sight
Take me away from my everyday fight

Half of the time we pass in asking for whys, that time is wasted,
i’ll tell you in a while all we got to do is shine

Hard times in my home and in my life, show me the reason why 
High times in my home and in my place, when i can see your face
Trying to hang a postcard on my door
Trying to stop you calling me to strive  
I’m a-waiting for you to stack all these lessons in my head
I’m a-waiting for you to tax all these beauties in my heart

Drivers become mad when journey's too long
And the bus was so fast as the passengers hot
Sunbeams were over and night was upon 
When the driver screamed out ‘now girls we must stop’
Looking around on the way to nowhere she said
‘I hope this travel will show me my way’
‘I want to help I don’t want to pretend
i’m not here just to follow some trends’

They’re arrived in the land of the gipsy
Where mountains aim high, valleys are misty
Misery and ruin reign over happiness
‘Oh yeah’ she said ‘this is the place for me’

Between the faces of sorrow and woe
She noticed the one that she will call love
She thought of her old friend who came from the past
But she knew that this guy could give her so much
Having a natter looking the moon she said
‘Hey my dear, do you know where we’re at?’
he said ‘Surely i know, i’m a son of May
and i swear i do love you each and every day’

Playing and laughing with the last century babes
Working and chatting with sorrowful strangers
And in the end she was so satisfied that that
Land and these moments could never leave her heart

Back to her home, back to the school
The same old music, the same old fools
Nothing has changed, instead of me
‘Oh daddy, do you know how I feel?’
