Anthony My Son

Anthony my son

Why must it be

Lost in a world

Of fantasy

You got in a car wreck

That we know

Oh Anthony

Why is it so?

Anthony my son

Why must it be

Put it on display

For all to see

Or put it in a bag

No one will know

Oh Anthony

Why is it so?

We hope and pray

There'll be better days ahead

Mocking God in church

Another antic that I dread

Let me take you to the side

And put that fear back inside your bones

Oh Anthony my son

Please don't live this lie alone

Anthony my son

Why must it be?

Too late to find out

Too soon to see

Living in the moment

It takes it toll

A much to heavy price

For a heavy soul

Anthony my son

I do resign

A man of such deeds

Is so defined

Somewhere deep inside

The hope is there

Oh Anthony...

I'm not sure where.
