he tries he tries
he works all the time
never skips a beat
making life happen

he plays he sings
his voice screams
he never skips a beat
living with all the love

i can see it in his eyes
the pain he keeps at bay
i can hear it in his songs
he screams the pain away

striving for it all
never giving up
gripping at the past
dance it all away

he wants it so bad
and it's his to have
he deserves it all
guess what
the cats out of the bag
