[00:13.66]Tom is always sick about everything
[00:17.20]Maybe it’s in his heart or maybe it’s in his head
[00:26.11]He often prays for people like him
[00:28.69]In the hospitals where it feels so grim
[00:32.19]He tries to put the light of hope within
[00:38.50]His parents, they don’t understand
[00:43.99]Why he gives his time for the frail-ones
[00:47.82]Instead of taking care of him
[00:52.60]Tom knows he does belong here
[00:54.52]But at home things are really heavy
[00:57.57]That he planned to leave not to become nasty
[01:13.86]Sweet Beth and her mother
[01:16.51]Had an argument again about summer
[01:19.49]That she wants to spend with her bunch of friends
[01:26.29]Lately Beth lost too much weight
[01:29.30]The bones of her spine are like teeth from a saw
[01:32.52]Ready to cut her skin off to get it over with
[01:38.61]She can’t stand her face and her reflection
[01:44.41]In the mirror she found this is not enough
[01:47.51]To feel well among friends when your family life is rough
[01:53.76]When the corners of your mind are just blocked
[02:03.13]And the only window of your heart overlooks nothing
[02:11.40]Nothing but a lonesome track
[02:19.13]You want to get out of this tragic plight
[02:26.69]Where you are confined, you weep to get blind
[02:32.80]You wish you could bury that voice
[02:36.20]Pretending you have no choice
[02:38.97]But right after that way, there’ll be a newborn day
[03:09.26]Sometimes I thought my shadow
[03:15.90]Was a long, long way behind me
[03:21.18]But it kept haunting me
[03:24.40]Because I refuse to see what I needed to be
[03:33.88]Me, I want to go where my curing lives
[03:37.78]And where the angels hum about
[03:40.97]The defeats that were turning into gold
