If you waste your time a-talking
to the people who don’t listen
to the things that you are saying

Who do you thinks gonna hear?

And if you should die explaining
how the things that they complain about
are things they could be changing

Who do you thinks gonna care?

There were other lonely singers
In a world turned deaf and blind
who were crucified for what they tried to show

and their voices have been scattered by the swirling winds of time
.
because the truth remains, that no one wants to know

–Kris Kristofferson, 1970
