If he could breathe then he would feel so well
And not locked up inside this prison cell
Another accident complacency
And now hes questioning a truth believed
A precious memory from so long ago
Push come to shove and now he wont let go
And he sees this world through cellophane eyes
Its almost like he can feel my lies
So please youre not alone
I caught him out in the freezing snow
Ive been his friend
Its hard to tell
Youre hardly old enough, so teach him well
In agony a mother seeking help
A son astray as far as I can tell
A month is gone without a word to speak
Afraid and lonely on this windy street
Saving face and shame from strangers by
The choice is made and only God know why
And he sees this world through cellophane eyes
Its almost like he can feel my lies
So please youre not alone
I caught him out in the freezing snow
Ive been his friend
Its hard to tell
Youre hardly old enough, so teach him well
So please dont leave its your eyes, theyre deceiving you
For all eternity, the truth revealed in you
For all eternity, the truth revealed in you (repeat)
So please youre not alone
I caught him out in the freezing snow
Ive been his friend
Its hard to tell
Youre hardly old enough, so teach him well
Teach him well.
