Paul
Such a beautiful person
In such deep pain
His face disfigured
In a violent game
He hides from the world
Doesn’t want to be seen
His story is a sad one
From places his been
Take courage my friend
Leave the pass right behind
Your futures in front
Just follow the signs
And play your piano
Your music’s so good
My soul it did lighten
Right here where I stood
Take back the life force
That is always yours
You are a good person
Of that I am sure
Don’t let the world ruin you
Or sadden you more
Hang on with both hands
It’s not right that you’re sore
Do what it takes
If need be, alone
Take back your power
Don’t turn to stone
Take my hand if you need to
I am your friend
Maybe together
We can help your world bend
You seem fragile and frightened
Don’t know what to do
Your life is your own
It’s all up to you
Leave your anger behind you
It’s done so much harm
You can’t walk on straight forward
With those chains right behind
I’ll help you my friend
I’ll do what I can
Its hurts me to see you
In all this, so much pain
So remember dear Paul
And remember it well
You have your own choices
Get out of your hell.
