     Time and again, you will see
     The harsh truths of reality
     The pain and suffering, all plainly there
     It hurts to cry, even worse to stare

     Time and again, the world will show
     How much we just didn't know
     About the environment, trying to save
     And yet we dig them an early grave

     Time and again, I shake my head
     And inside, I do secretly dread
     All the disasters, all the gloom
     All leading up to an early doom

     Yet, time and again I still find
     Hearts of those of a gentler kind
     Discovering those small, helping hands
     Assisting everyone that they can

     It's that small assistance that warms my heart
     That make the other problems seem to part
     And time and again I can smile still
     Because, time and again, people have the will
