CAPO II
you were a friend to me
when my wheels were off the track
and
though you say there is no need
i intend to
pay you back
when my mind was turning loose and
all my thoughts were turning black
you shined a light on me and
i intend to
pay you back
when i was a child i de
pended on a bottle
and
full grown i’ve been known to
lean on a
bible
but
you’re the real deal in a
world of imposters
and
i’ve seen the program make
men out of
monsters
(Chorus)
’cause
i still wake up
shaken by dreams
and
i hate to say it but the
way it seems
is that
no
one is
fine
take the
time to
peel a few layers
and
you will find
tru
e
sadness
adam and eve must have
really done a number
on that
garden when the
apple was
finished
leaving behind them a
den made of sadness
and
damn if that can’t or
won’t be re
plenished
(Chorus)
angela became a
target
as
soon as her beauty was
seen
by
young men who try to re
duce her down
to a
scene on an x-rated
screen
is she not
more than the curve of her
hips
is she not
more than the shine on her
lips
does she not
dream to see and to
live and to dance down her
own path
without being
torn apart
does she not have a
heart
i
cannot go on with this
evil inside me
i
step out my front door and i
feel it sur
round me
just
know the kingdom of
god is within you
even though the battle is
bound to con
tinue
(Chorus)
true
sadness
true

true
