The story of a teenager

Boy, Please Don't Throw Away Your Life
All the Joy, Please Don't End It With a Knife
'cause You Know There's Hope For You

I Was Alone Like the Silence in the Night
I Had no Home no One Close to Hold Me Tight
But You Know There's Hope For You, For You

Everywhere I Look I See Your Face
Every Step I Take Seems Out of Place
You Got to Be a Man to Run the Race
I'm Not a Hopeless Man
How Can You Say I Am?

I Was Alone Like the Silence in the Night
I Had no Home no One Close to Hold Me Tight
But You Know There's Hope For You, For You

Everywhere I Look I See Your Face
Every Step I Take Seems Out of Place
You Got to Be a Man to Run the Race
I'm Not a Hopeless Man
How Can You Say I Am
