Act 4 Scene 2 For this scene I chose the song “Compassion(Change the World)” by Andrew Witt. I chose this song because it talks about one person that really wants to help the person who is in trouble. It also talks about that maybe that person doesn’t know how to assist everyone‚ but he’s going to at least help one person and make them feel better.
