When Father Time begins to run out on you |
|
There's a place we take you to |
|
"Just a burden now", I heard them say |
|
I know I'm just in the way |
|
You watch the car as they drive slowly away |
|
Their guilt will hang on them for just today |
|
All alone you sit, the phone never rings |
|
Each day new sorrow brings |
|
And the holidays, they come and they go |
|
But there's one thing that I know |
|
Even though my family counts me for dead |
|
I never see them anyway |
|
My life to God is not a worthless mistake |
|
He's right there with me in my endless heartache |
|
Can you look away from all this pain |
|
Or do you think it isn't there |
|
Can you look away from all this pain |
|
Say you just don't really care |
|
As we lock our priceless heritage away |
|
Our kin the elderly |
|
Do you know someone who stares at the walls |
|
I think you know what to do |
