Breakdown

I hear your questions 
I see your face 
Your life before you 
Is full of grace 
What can I tell you
To let you know 
Your angel's eyes 
Will watch you grow


Come listen close
And I'll try to let you know
It's all I know


There is no magic 
There are no secrets 
We all begin this race at the start 
But I have come this far
With a truth of the heart 


Deep down inside
I think we're all the same 
Try not to judge someone 
And never shame 
I do believe that people are good
They just want hope and respect
And to be understood


Sometimes it hard sometimes it's strange 
But the truth of the heart is people can change 


Yes there is danger and there are shadows 
And there is fear inside the dark 
It has powered countries and borne religion 
Fear can never rule the heart 


My father's burden 
My mother's rain
My own desire 
My sister's pain 
All souls have traveled along this road
Each one has carried their own heavy load
