Magnificent Sadness

[Verse 1]
That ain't a home
It's a furnace in need of some matches
I can't believe how long you've lived
With magnificent sadness
When so much pain's in the heart
It doesn't seem real
Hard to believe that good
Can come out of something so evil

[Chorus]
Never too young to feel
Takes a while to heal
Never too young to feel
Trouble happens to the rich and the poor
To the prude or the down-right whore
No need to know what for
Pain's nothing less than inevitable

[Verse 2]
Once he realized it's his choice
And he could walk out
Jealous of the boys in the normal house
He started hanging with the rebel crowd
And he learned to walk proud
With the sun in his laughing mouth

[Chorus]
Never too young to feel
Takes a while to heal
Never too young to feel
Trouble happens to the rich and the poor
To the prude or the down-right whore
No need to know what for
Pain's nothing less than inevitable

The young or old don't need to know what for

[Outro]
He feels the courage build
Like the sunrise upon the hill
Showing hope that he can
Someday understand
