You were a friend to me when my wheels were off the track
And though you say there is no need I intend to pay you back
When my mind was turning loose and all my thoughts were turning black
You shined a light on me and I intend to pay you back
When I was a child I depended on a bottle
And full grown I've been known to lean on a bottle
But you're the real deal in a world of imposters
And I've seen the program make men out of monsters
(Chorus)
'Cause I still wake up shaken by dreams
And I hate to say it but the way it seems
Is that no one is fine
Take the time to peel a few layers
And you will find
True sadness
Adam and Eve must have really done a number
On that garden when the apple was finished
Leaving behind them a debt made of sadness
A damage that can't or won't be replenished
(Chorus)
Angela became a target
As soon as her beauty was seen
By young men who try to reduce her down
To a scene on an x-rated screen
Is she not more than the curve of her hips
Is she not more than the shine on her lips
Does she not dream to see and to live and to dance down her own path
Without being torn apart
Does she not have a heart
I cannot go on with this evil inside me
I step out my front door and I feel it surround me
Just know the kingdom of God is within you
Even though the battle is bound to continue
(Chorus)
True sadness
True sadness
True true sadness
True Sadness
