Текст пісні
One day you're young and able
Believing all the fables
Passed on down to you
Knowing nothing but the world
It's a limitless hopeful feeling
And your loved ones all believe it
You're the best thing that's ever yet to come
And you'll go far
You're the brightest star they'll ever see
Then you're in a classroom
And the bullies all harass you
Got you thinking it's all bad news
From here forevermore
And there's chapters that come after
The same old psychobabbel
You lose a lot of faith in what you're told
And it just gets old
With nowhere left to go to be yourself
As you break through adolescence
You warm them with your presence
But you still have many questions
That never have been solved
In the wake of your depression
Your's soul's endless suppression
You see the world with shattered hopes and dreams
It's a hazy fog
You wonder where it all come from, you don't have a clue
From the depths of your despair
Which haunt you everywhere
You find comfort in the bottle
That propels you just to speak
Until your life becomes dysfunction
And you only cause destruction
And the ones you thought you knew begin to stray
It's a new day
And it all seems here to stay as you fade away
But through your mother's words of wisdom
You tackle with the vision
That you'll be stronger onward
And the past won't mean a thing
Till the day you find her helpless
And the trials leave you breathless
And the worst to come has finally taken place
And you think it's done
What you knew forever gone
But then you remember what she told ya
You remember how she'd hold ya
And you embrace the change you thought you'd never see
So you kick the dirty vices
And to everyone's surprises
You conquer every battle
'Cause it's you against the world
Then you go and get your mother
Cause she would have no other
The legacy she left lives to this day
And no matter how hard
Her special angel can't be barred
For she knew in his golden age he'd make a change
For every story of deprival
Comes a song of survival
A chapter to hold on to
To weather all the pain
But to once feel like a zero
And now be called a hero
Would only mean as much to me if we could start again
I love you
Oh I love you
Special angel of mine
