Do You Wonder
We all have a scarlet letter That we try to hide We all have a secret sin Buried deep inside We wander aimlessly Believing we're alone We wear masks that smile To hide our hearts of stone Do you wonder... Is there anything pure? Is there anything holy? Is there anything good Left anymore? Will we forever be standing here Straining to see another shore? Do you wonder? I do. I cry until I cannot breathe Beat the walls with these fists. Take well planned shots at life But still, I always miss. Dark sorrow remains. People die across the sea, While I sit here weeping, Weeping over me. Do you wonder... Is there anything pure? Is there anything holy? Is there anything good Left anymore? Will we forever be standing here Straining to see another shore? Do you wonder? I do. A carpenter came to my shore He made my scarlet letter his own And bore my secret sins. Said, "You'll never be alone." He tore away my mask Wiped all the tears away
