Never Born
(Verse 1 – From the perspective of the unborn child)
I was already there, small and invisible,
A heartbeat that pounded, full of wonder and light.
I dreamed of laughter, of hands that held,
Of a birthday with candles so bright.
But one decision, quick and so cold,
Take me the chance to see the world.
I will never celebrate, never walk, never play,
Only shadows in my heart, an eternal pain.
(Chorus)
Never born, never kissed, never loved in this world,
Never a birthday to celebrate.
One wrong decision that destroys everything,
Unborn children that no one hears anymore.
Why, Mom, why, Dad?
I would have made you happy, I swear.
(Verse 2 – The parents' doubts)
They sat together, full of fear and full of doubt,
The world was too harsh, life too hard.
"We're not ready," they whispered softly,
The tears fell, their hearts so empty.
A decision that will never let them go,
A shadow that follows through the nights.
They often ask themselves: Was it right, was it wrong?
The pain doesn't lessen, it only grows stronger.
(Chorus)
Never born, never kissed, never loved in this world,
Never a birthday to celebrate.
A wrong decision that destroys everything,
Unborn children no one hears anymore.
Why, Mom, why, Dad?
I would have made you happy, I swear.
(Verse 3 – The Father)
The father was shaken, deep in his soul,
He wanted to hold me, make me strong, grow up.
But the words of others, the fear of the unknown,
Shut him up, let him go.
Years passed, he never came to terms with it,
Saw other children laughing and playing.
He grew bitter, hard, and withdrawn,
Carried the guilt with him, heavy for a lifetime.
(Bridge – The Father Speaks)
I see you in dreams, my child who never came,
Your laughter, your tears, that I never heard.
Forgive me my weakness, forgive me my pain,
I would have fought, but I didn't dare.
(Verse 4 – The Mother)
The woman grew sad, a hole in her chest,
She wanted to rock me, sing me a song.
But the emptiness remained, her arms so empty,
No child to raise, no pride to feel.
She weeps in the nights, asking herself again and again:
Why did I do it? Was it really for the best?
Regret consumes her, never leaving her in peace,
A life full of longing, full of endless pain.
(Refrain)
Never born, never kissed, never loved in this world,
Never a birthday to celebrate.
A wrong decision that destroys everything,
Unborn children no one hears anymore.
Why, Mom, why, Dad?
I would have made you happy, I swear.
(Outro – Together)
Unborn souls calling out in the wind,
Remind the world of the value of every life.
No wrong decision that goes unruly,
Let children be born, let them blossom.
[Chorus]
(Refrain)
KAIRO
