Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

there's a story unfolding before all of our eyes
about a boy who worries of discovering lies
he wanders the streets of his little hometown
he's too young to drink so he swallows it down

and the paperboy throws his sunday's at him
while the preacher preaches that he's full of sin
and his mother knows this a little too well
she could make it all better but she's living in hell

so he lowers his head and he walks down the street
counting the cracks as he wears out his feet
he comes across a dog that he soon takes back home
and he's found a new friend who won't leave him alone

as his days grow longer along with his height
the little boy gets a taste of his very first bite
for a brief moment he knew where he began
he didn't care so much as it's bare as a lamb

with a final push he gives all he can
the little boy grows up a hell of a man
he says his goodbye knowing exactly what's done
and just like before him he leaves his own son
