The Great Hendowski

I met a guy with some coins in his can His face was weathered, dark and sad He looked up to me and asked something I'll never forget He said, "How can you smile with your lips Wrapped around a loaded gun? How can you smile? Look at this life, is this all we've got?" And my reply was quick Read this book, you were meant to live It all means so much to me But note what's written in red, it says... It speaks of hope, trust and love The fear of never being good enough We were all made the same, I know it's tough Please don't give up! Don't speak that way Cause I won't allow you You're too young to live this way Just close your eyes and see the true meaning You're too young to live this way Just look around and see that life is beauty How can you smile when this life is all we've got? There's no hole inside, no time that's long enough That can be saved or healed, there's nothing that Can't be covered with love! Don't speak that way Cause I won't allow you You're too young to live this way Just close your eyes and see the true meaning You're too young to live this way Just look around and see that life is beauty This world is not, this world is not My home, I'm just passing through! There's hope, there's love, I know there is a void There's hope and there is love But there's no void that can't be covered with love!
