In the words of his mama, He
was
my
only
son.
In the words of his sister, He
was
on
the
run.
In the words of his girl, How
could
it
end
this
way?
In the words of his daddy, Well
he
never
had
much
to
say.
Goodbye Kathy and goodbye Mom, there's voices in my head
Angel dust and tortured dreams say I'd be better dead
You, you chased the shadows because your hopes
And dreams have been lost to the night
Hey, Billy, did you hear the news?
Johnny's gone for good
They say his mama's all broke up
They found him in the woods
Kathy just couldn't understand
Sheriff, he just looked tired
Some will play and some will pay
And Johnny played with fire
Goodbye Kathy and goodbye Mom, there's voices in my head
Angel dust and tortured dreams say I'd be better dead
You, you chased the shadows because your hopes
And dreams have been lost to the night
You, you chased the shadows because your hopes
And dreams have been lost to the night
Johnny's dead and buried now out on the edge of town
Drove by his grave the other day, that's when the fear came down
I hate the night that took his life, but now it's haunting me
I may be young, may be confused but I gotta be free
God, are You there, can You hear me now?
Show me how to hope
Lost in the dark on a dead end road, please save me from myself
Lord, You, You took the shadows
- all my fears and doubt and brought me out of the night
Lord, You, You take the shadows
- give me hope and love and turn my darkness to light
Lord, You, You took the shadows
- all my fears and doubt and brought me out of the night
Lord, You, You take the shadows
- give me hope and love and turn my darkness to light
