Entering the crowded room
filled with smoke and noise
watching the innocence slip away
from all the perfect girls and boys

Watching as the lights go down
and come up on the stage
A young and timid boy takes the mic
and lets loose a fit of rage

Exciting the night with howls and screams
from the bottom of his soul
telling tales of anger and strife
which never should be told

As his family embrace his song
and makes him born anew
this young and timid boy is now
held in different view

As his brothers growl behind him
the world it dissapears
now all that is that still remains
drowns in this boys fears

This sound which so many see as dead
Brings these children to life
in this dark and crowded room
Everything comes to light
