The Great Hendowski |
| I met a guy with some coins in his can |
| His face was weathered, dark and sad |
| He looked up to me and asked something I’ll never forget |
| He said, «How can you smile with your lips |
| Wrapped around a loaded gun? |
| How can you smile? |
| Look at this life, is this all we’ve got?» |
| And my reply was quick |
| Read this book, you were meant to live |
| It all means so much to me |
| But note what’s written in red, it says… |
| It speaks of hope, trust and love |
| The fear of never being good enough |
| We were all made the same, I know it’s tough |
| Please don’t give up! |
| Don’t speak that way |
| Cause I won’t allow you |
| You’re too young to live this way |
| Just close your eyes and see the true meaning |
| You’re too young to live this way |
| Just look around and see that life is beauty |
| How can you smile when this life is all we’ve got? |
| There’s no hole inside, no time that’s long enough |
| That can be saved or healed, there’s nothing that |
| Can’t be covered with love! |
| Don’t speak that way |
| Cause I won’t allow you |
| You’re too young to live this way |
| Just close your eyes and see the true meaning |
| You’re too young to live this way |
| Just look around and see that life is beauty |
| This world is not, this world is not |
| My home, I’m just passing through! |
| There’s hope, there’s love, I know there is a void |
| There’s hope and there is love |
| But there’s no void that can’t be covered with love! |
