Oh big city boy Explain to me boy Why do you hide your face While the flowers, Wither away. Oh small town hope, So much potential, Gone down the drain. Makes me go insane. Oh I had high hopes, Oh a proud mother, Watches from the cracked window. That your daddy broke. Oh big city boy, Oh explain to me. Why, You hide your face. While the roses decay. Oh, Small town hope. Can you forget your, Thoughts, Opinions. Cause mamas dying wish was for you- Can you hold your breath, Sink under, Words depend, On your own, Foul life. Please look into my eyes. Oh mama cried. When you thought you were. Not her son. Small town hope, Lost. Oh big city boy, Found a small town girl. She looked, A little odd. A little bit taller, Then he thought. Oh small town hope, Ran away from what she had known. Her mama shouted loud and clear. "You aren't welcome here!" Oh big city boy, Met the family, Punched her dad, Once or twice, Shouted for the rights. "Things have changed! She is safe! From you now! You can go and-" Fall. Oh can you forget your opinions, Those old things, Rotted your brain, Gave you a sense of validation. Please come back my friend. I wanna see you again. Bring your boyfriend. Sister from another mister. Thought I left you for dead.
