Green Lizard Ballad Of The Boy Lyrics

Ballad Of The Boy Lyrics

dont be afraid he said

when he took his hand

slowly drove him mad
when

he filled his hand with sand



no one knew 

not
even mother dear

she just cleaned her shelves and

her mind was
struck with fear



several years went by but

nothing changed
at all

once I thought I heard the boy cry

thought he took a fall
but no



no one knew

what went on

until it was too
late

he shot him



no one knew 

anything about you



and in the end

everything seemed lost

he could not defend
his right to live

all that he saw 

was a dead man shot by him

not the pain he went through
