[time] => 2004-10-23 16:38:14 [hometext] => This is dedicated to my good friend Chris, who is beaten by his father and never tells anyone. I was the only one brave enough to ask where he got the bruises on his arms from...I LOVE YOU CHRIS! [bodytext] => Can't you all see
The pain behind his mask?
Am I the only one
With the courage to ask?

Can't you all see
He's putting on a show?
Am I the only one
That will ever know?

Can't you all see
The tears in my eyes
Whenever I look at him
And begin to cry?

Can't you all see
How good your off,
When others are fighting
To stay on top?

Can't you all see
He needs friends by his side?
Not to pressure him,
But keep him alive.

Can't you all see
The way he's treated?
Poked, Joked,
Tormented, Beated?

Well I can see.
I'm not blind.
Come on and see!
Before he unwinds.....
