[00:00.93]March. 1945 unwanted from his first breath.
[00:05.67]A mother's blessing born, a father's burden worn.
[00:06.69]The bright shine of the sunrise along the tile floor to the open door.
[00:07.98]With blood on the streets she lay on the mattress.
[00:09.87]Staring aimlessly.
[00:10.26]Numb, dark and decayed
[00:23.46]On the bathroom floor of their rundown apartment.
[00:24.51]Scraping fingers on tile just to feel something.
[00:28.02]Unwanted by a bastard father.
[00:33.90]Unwanted, but through the hazel eyes of his mother.
[00:40.02]She's praying for god to save her.
[00:40.74]"Please save me." but when she needs him most, he doesn't answer.
[00:54.60]Another rosary, another unanswered plea.
[01:07.17]"Please take us away, please let us be safe.
[01:14.73]Let everyone that sees me forget my face."
[01:22.26]But all she gets is the drunk with his fists and that old devil look in his eye.
[01:24.96]Him and Jack, that gambling debt, that old devil look in his eye.
[01:41.16]And without warning he raises his hand to her and says,
[01:48.81]"Your god can't hear you, not down here.
[02:05.82]No one will save you because no one cares."
[02:41.37]And with her newborn boy, they would cry until the early morning light.
[02:49.38]It was the first of many, many sleepless nights.
