FAMILY HISTORY

ONLY THE BEGINNING IS TRUE

THERE WAS AN ISLAND
AND AN ORPHAANGE AND A BOY

THERE WAS A TRAIN AND A COUNTRY

TO CROSS

THERE WAS JUST A BOY

THEY TOOK HIS WORDS FROM HIM

THERE WAS JUST A BOY AND THEY TOOK

FROM HIS WORDS
SO HE COULD NOT SPEAK WITH OTHERS
SO HE COULD NOT KNOW THERE WERE OTHERS
SO HE WAS A BOY

WE KNOW THERE WAS A BOY ALONE

CAN I SAYT THESE THINGS IF I AM NOT THAT BOY?

I DON’T KNOW THAT BOY THAT IS
I NEVER SPOKE TO THAT BOY?
WE MUST TAKE OUR EARS SERIOUSLY
