Calibretto 13 Goodbye Cruel World lyrics

Old man Thorn, he was good
He was just misunderstood
He never took nobody's life
So how come his ended in strife?

They came in one gloomy night
Came with the darkness, stole the light
They took him out back and bashed his head
One month later he was found dead

Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody listening?
If there's a God
Oh, could You hear Him?
Was he screaming out in vain?
Did You even know his name?

Julie was a sweet little girl
Said a prayer before every meal
So how come father was so bad?
She couldn't even call him Dad

He made her live her life in pain
Took her trust, made her insane
Where were You when he broke her down?
Did You even hear a sound?


Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody listening?
If there's a God
Oh, could You hear her?
Was she crying out in vain?
Did You even know her name?

Life is short and life is gray
What am I living for anyway?
Consequences I must pay
If I don't get it right today

The world just seems so unfair
We are living in the monster's lair
I need to know You're on the throne
I wonder when You'll take us home

I know there is somebody out there
I know there is somebody listening
There is a God and He can hear me

I'm not screaming out in vain
And I know He knows my name
