|
Sadly his mother watches helplessly, as her child demolishes the very fabric she believes in. |
|
Catching an occasional glimpse, she remembers with great pain, the anguish she felt, as the memories from her past re-appear. |
|
Frustration turns to confused anger. |
|
She still can't come to terms with the fact that her husband took his own life. "Why", she asks herself, "why didn't he tell me? Why couldn't anybody lend him a helping hand?" |
|
All the while her son is silently crying out for help. [Intro] |
|
Looking back in time, |
|
Without consent. two lovers ran away |
|
A tragic tale, so often made |
|
So sad and destined to fail [Verse] |
|
They're in and out of every place |
|
Searchin' hard a sad disgrace |
|
At best a darkened room, without a view |
|
Those memories, still remain |
|
Never once did she complain |
|
Now time repeats itself, all over again [Bridge] |
|
What he did, was insane |
|
Sadly his own life he'd take |
|
And you've been left to face the guilt, alone [Chorus] |
|
Just try to remember |
|
He was a victim of circumstance |
|
Close your eyes, try to recall |
|
The strength you felt |
|
Now, is the time to be stronger |
|
Than you've ever been before |
|
Bury all your anguish and fear, you're not to blame [Verse] |
|
Don't analyze, come to terms |
|
Face the truth, don't turn away |
|
Where there's a will, there has to be a way |
|
Into the world, your child came |
|
Responsibility or shame |
|
He backed away from you, don't lose him again [Ad-libs] |
|
You're not alone! you've got to be stronger |
