Lyrics
The Ballad
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The last selection in the ballgame.
Does never get a pass. Not appreciated's just his first name.
He's the scapegoat of the class.
There are no friends to cheer him up and no girls, no sweetromance.
It's impossible to expand, when you never get a second chance.
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.
He's not going to the school-prom. He said he had the flu.
Trumped-up excuses as he told mom.
- I´m safer here with you.
She told her son.
- Someday, they'll all be sorry for mistreating you.
Don't be afraid my son and trust me,
-You'll be someone they will look up to.
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery...
Do you care to see?
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.
