A Thousand Words

Lost in an image like a ghost in time In ceremony of a last goodbye A lonely silhouette against a tortured sky I saw her in a photograph She stood there broken head in her hand A moment caught in time my God how it's still haunting me Well they say that a pictures worth a thousand words In the ache of an image I have seen the worst Like a million screams for mercy that can't be unheard Cause in times like these We must live and learn Where will I go when I can't right the wrongs Who will I turn to where I don't belong The things I took for granted way to long oh Theres so much left unsaid I cannot ignore anymore Well they say that a pictures worth a thousand words In the ache of an image I have seen the worst Like a million screams for mercy that can't be unheard Cause in times like these We must live and learn The image in my mind A cause for reason Haunts me day and night Impermanence we find Just like the seasons We fade out in due time Well they say that a pictures worth a thousand words In the ache of an image I have seen the worst Well they say that a pictures worth a thousand words In the ache of an image I have seen the worst So I won't take for granted or speak out of turn Cause in times like these We must live and learn So I won't take for granted or speak out of turn Cause in times like these We must live and learn In times like these We must live and learn In times like these We must live and learn --- A Thousand Words - Myles Kennedy
