They destroyed my home They grabbed my head And sucked and sucked till I was dead I could feel the pain, until the very end When they pulled me out and tossed me in a bin Why didn't they give me a chance? It was all I ever wanted I had dreams just like everybody else Maybe I would have become a doctor Saving people's lives Maybe I would have become a fireman And pulled someone from the blaze Or maybe, just maybe I would be a friend To someone in desperate need of a godsend Who knows how many people would have been touched The lives I could have saved Instead I'm lying in a trash can The victim of someone's mistake
