lyrics

There was this boy you see
said, "God gave this one to me.
He cheered me up with the snow,
gave me a place to go."
He's trying to lose himself all the time
He's trying to get away but has too many steps to climb
He's trying to hide away all his inner sores
He says he's trying to quit but he keeps on riding that horse
There was this girl I knew
says I haven't got a clue
There most be something out there
Though I doubt it's really fair
She's trying to find herself all the time
At the cost of all the ones that she leaves behind
She thinks the world out there can be saved
She doesn't realize everyone's been bought and paid
So she keeps on going ahead though there's really no place to go
She's so full of faith she tunes into every show
And here I am again
Disappointment my old friend
I thought we ended the curse
But now the pain is much worse
So, I'll put my faith in the one who may have the plan
In a world of petulant children there stands a man
Putting all of us on his back one day we'll be free
And I have to believe he will lead us to victory.
- Joe Boylan
