The Great Hendowski-Of Mice & Men

[00:07.13]I met a guy with some coins in his hand [00:09.82]His face was weathered, dark, and sad [00:12.84]He looked up to me and asked [00:14.65]Something I'll never forget [00:17.65]He said, [00:18.78]How can you smile with your lips wrapped around a loaded gun? [00:24.71]How can you smile? [00:26.28]Look at this life, is this all we've got? [00:31.09]And my reply was quick [00:33.34]Read this book, you were meant to live [00:35.96]It all means so much to me [00:38.34]But note what's written in red [00:40.90]It says… [00:41.97]It speaks of hope, trust, and love, [00:44.97]The fear of never being good enough [00:47.84]We are all made the same [00:50.24]I know it's tough, but please don't give up [00:54.73]Don't speak that way, 'cause I won't allow you [01:06.04]You're too young to live this way [01:10.54]Just close your eyes and see [01:13.68]The true meaning [01:17.68]You're too young to live this way [01:22.29]Just look around and see [01:25.24]That life is beauty [01:29.93]How can you smile, when this life is all we've got? [01:41.54]There's no hole inside, no time that's long enough, [01:46.73]That can't be saved or healed [01:49.48]There's nothing that can't be covered with love [01:53.61]Don't speak that way, 'cause I won't allow you [02:05.17]You're too young to live this way [02:09.50]Just close your eyes and see [02:12.50]The true meaning [02:16.62]You're too young to live this way [02:21.18]Just look around and see [02:23.81]That life is beauty [02:28.81]This world is not… [02:34.25]This world is not my home [02:36.62]I'm just passing through [02:51.58]There's hope, there is love [02:54.33]I know there is a void [02:57.33]There's hope, and there is love [02:59.64]But there is no void that can't be covered with love
