Russy

by Amanda   Sep 14, 2004


I knew a boy once
With a smile on his face
Never shed a tear
Never needed space
With a shot all that changed
From his father's gun
He never felt the shot
But he was his son
It may have been his dad
That died yesterday
But there's a part of him
That dies every day

I know a boy now
With a sadness in his face
Shed his tears in private
He always needs his space
Forever changed, forever different
He'll never be the same
I once heard him scream at night
Living in his dreams
He walks a living nightmare
He doesn't trust a soul
Russ come back we promise
That we will never go
