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