When I make a mistake, don't look away.
When things go wrong, don't look away.
When I writhe in pain, don't look away.
When evil men hold society hostage, don't look away.
When charlatans enter the stage, don't look away.
When I'm cold, don't look away.
When misfortune pays me a visit, don't look away.
When I fall down, don't look away.
When my decisions go south, don't look away.
When my heart is broken, don't look away.
When I'm drowning, don't look away.
When my roof is on fire, don't look away.
When you hear a cry from a distance, don't look away.
When I knock on your door, don't look away.
