Have I ever told the story

how every Sunday

I'd walk through the city 

and through the alleyways

and one day while walking 

I met a man

and he said the cards he held were not in his plan

he told me a story about his old life

and how everyone he loved left him with a knife in his back

and his story was so clear to see, 

this man reflected on what happened to me

I told him please listen cause I am the same

but my heart never told me to give up and walk away

times never do far gone, 

starting over is hard but it helps us move on

two weeks had passed and I walked through those buildings

to find that the man had appeared to be missing

I saw his backpack sitting on the ground

and on top was a note I was sad I had found

it read son you and I are alike in most ways

but your courage is stronger than mine could ever hope to be

and down at the bottom I found an address

and my eyes filled with tears and my head with distress

I got up and ran as fast as I could

to a hospital nearby and asked if they would

tell me where that man was and if he was okay

and they told me they found him dead in an alleyway

I sat there for hours not knowing what id heard

til I got up and left and walked home without a word,

sometimes time helps us move on

but starting overs hard when your life is gone

sometimes time helps us move on but startin overs hard when your life is gone
