Teach Him Well

If he could breathe then he would feel so well And not locked up inside this prison cell Another accident complacency And now he抯 questioning a truth believed A precious memory from so long ago Push come to shove and now he won抰 let go And he sees this world through cellophane eyes It抯 almost like he can feel my lies So please you抮e not alone I caught him out in the freezing snow I抳e been his friend It抯 hard to tell You抮e 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 It抯 almost like he can feel my lies So please you抮e not alone I caught him out in the freezing snow I抳e been his friend It抯 hard to tell You抮e hardly old enough, so teach him well So please don抰 leave it抯 your eyes, they抮e deceiving you For all eternity, the truth revealed in you For all eternity, the truth revealed in you (repeat) So please you抮e not alone I caught him out in the freezing snow I抳e been his friend It抯 hard to tell You抮e hardly old enough, so teach him well Teach him well.
