Today
she looked me in the eye
And today
I know
She saw me for the first time
And if tomorrow never comes
Will everything still be alright
'Cause today
She saw my shame
And knew me for the first time
She said
“I never knew
Never tried, never cried
Until you
Came into my life
I never saw
Never heard, not a word
What was wrong
I never knew
I never knew
Pain like you
I never knew
You”
There I go
Out the door
To a place and a time
That I never knew before
And in my heart
In my mind
Is this world and the girl
And the turmoil I left behind
And the hurt and regret
That I'll never forget
For the tears in her eyes
And these words …
Machine of man
Churning out indifference
Molding and coating
In lies and twisted truths
Who are you to
Hide behind the curtain
Covering up all your evils and sins
You judge the condemned
With your Cheshire grin
If all of your worst deeds
We laid out bare
Would we still see a righteous man
Standing there?
