(Verse 1)
The boy, he walks to the well
To find some water to live
The pain swells in his hands
He wants to leave it all behind, sometimes he's tried
(Verse 2)
A courage you can't seem to find
The battles he fights in his mind
And desperate, he curses the sky
I damn the day that the world took his smile
(Chorus)
And he was living on a road he could never call his own
Pretending to just sing a song
And he was living on a road, so far from home
Until grace taught him to breathe
(Verse 3)
His face is deep in his hands
The year didn't go as he planned
They stole, they stole
They stole all that he had
(Chorus x2)
