The Saint

歌詞

She was breathless And so afraid She spoke her truth On that innocent day The beds she had lain in the lines of cocaine God knows that woman had lost her way God knows she'd lost her way Sweet forgiveness she was hoping for Never showed up Just a slamming door Six months in darkness cost her the kids The sons she had carried The life she had lived Does anybody see her Does anybody care How did this woman wind up On the road to nowhere Broken and hopeless Now one of the voiceless She entered a wasteland because of her choices Silence was deafening As thundering rain And all she could see was a lifetime of pain So she numbed it with alcohol Numbed it with pills But all the emptiness wouldn't be filled It took a man dying The one with the fists To make her do anything not to End up like this Does anybody see her (Does anybody see) Does anybody care (Does anybody care) How did this woman wind up On the road to nowhere After all of the tears and all of the waste Over a decade of lines on her face Stripped of everything covered in grace Is this the road to becoming a saint Stripped of everything covered in grace Maybe the addicts are really the saints
