Tell me now what have you done To justify your life my son Did you help your brothers, when they were down And when the bullets flew, did you stick around
I had no words, I never spoke If I had said one thing, you wouldn't know I did no harm, I hurt no one Why you ask me now, my chance has gone
Please don't send me away I want to come in If you give me today I will try again
Child I gave you all the breaks But all you did was take and take You say you did no harm, but you did no good And never sought redemption I think you should I realise my selfish love Has always got me through, by just enough I never thought this day would come When the demons of my soul would be undone
Look up and see the angels The gates have opened up for you I hope your mind is peaceful And love is everything you do
