For all of the lonely children Playing on their own For all of the widows and widowers That lie in bed alone For all of the brave women In a doctor's office scared For all teen girls with a pregnancy test Crying and unprepared For every American soldier Standing tall and proud For every individual That screams "unique" out loud For all of the single mothers Trying to survive For every battered and bruised wife Fighting to stay alive For all of the grieving families Standing beside a grave For every home that's been burned down As you sift through the pieces to save For the closet alcoholic Who tries to hide the booze For the ones that fight a silent disease And only seem to lose For every cop who braves the streets And the prostitutes that do the same For every nurse that heals the hurt For the celebrities and their fame For every hungry homeless man Who lives off of the food he steals For the treachery and jealousy And the lies that each reveal For every heart that's broken For every fallen tear For every dream that's shattered For prejudice and fear For every mountain that you climb For the heavens that you descend For the creation of every origin And the fulfillment of every end
