If I could I surely would Child, ease your pain But if I could no longer Would you still know my name? If I couldn’t drain the tears That pour from these eyes Would you turn your back on me? Would you wave goodbye? Or leave me way beyond empty inside Awaiting my last day to arrive Way beyond empty inside Awaiting my end to arrive If I could be the shoulder Which your head would rest upon Would you still be waiting, mama Or would you be gone? If I couldn’t keep the smile Forever on your face Would I still be around Or would I be replaced? Yeah, way beyond empty inside Awaiting my last day to arrive, yeah Way beyond empty inside Awaiting my end to arrive, oh Oh... Oh... Oh... And would you promise me Things they’d never change Could you promise me That things they’d stay the same? If I couldn’t clear the clouds From over your head Would you keep your word to me Amongst all the things you said? Or leave me way beyond empty inside Awaiting my last day to arrive, yeah Way beyond empty inside, oh... Awaiting my end to arrive Oh yeah, child

I see you across the room Search for some happiness ain’t anytime soon Turmoil has turned you inside Sift through your pages of miracles you wish to find... When you’re too numb to cry And you’re just left wondering why... When you’re too numb to cry And you’re just left wondering why... To change in the blink of an eye If you could you surely would wave yourself good-bye I try and I try and I try Get a hold on your suffering Peace in which you don’t wish to buy... When you’re too numb to cry And you’re just left wondering why... When you’re too numb to cry And you’re just left wondering why... Why... Why... Why...

Color my world all black and blue The hell you dish out comes back three-fold to you Inside your riddled rotten core I hope you get what you deserve worse and even more Even more, even more How can you do the things you do? You make Satan look like Christ, I swear it’s true How could you do the things you do? How could you do the things you do?

You make Satan look like Christ, I swear it’s true How could you do the things you do? How could you do the things you do, do? Oh... Oh...

I recall when you once said “There’s a truth in both of us and all that lies ahead.” I take it your tongue it just got twisted or maybe it got tired Or maybe your memory waved goodbye When your so called friends forget your name When your so called friends, they ain’t the same When your so called friends, they’ve lost their way And they ain’t what they was just the other day, hey Should’ve listened to what my folks, they had to say Just like a dog that’s turned on you Ain’t it funny what the color green will make some people do? How I couldn’t see through your thin disguise? Lord only knows and such a fool was I Happy go lucky, that’s what I was and what I hope to be But I feel that I’ve lost that side of me When your so called friends forget your name When your so called friends, they ain’t the same When your so called friends, they’ve lost their way And they ain’t what they was just the other day, hey Should’ve listened to what my folks, they had to say Just like a dog that’s turned on you Ain’t it funny what the color green will make some people do?
