He's just a boy
If you let him he will treat you like a toy
'Cause he's been stained blue
But he still dreams
His eyes they gleam at something new
I sense a sadness in his voice
I think i've come too close
Know he's regretting every choice
I think i've come too close
To getting to the part of him
He doesn’t want to see
And i'm the mirror that he breaks
The shards of glass that make him bleed
He's just a boy
Well he's a man if you make him out to be
He's got more to offer when he's in your dreams
'Cause when he's scared he will run away and leave
Let him go and say a prayer for his peace
'Cause i hear the sadness in his voice
I think i've come too close
Know he's regretting every choice
I think i've come too close
To getting to the part of him
He doesn’t want to be
And i'm the mirror that he breaks
The shards of glass that make him weak
He's just a boy
He's just a boy
I sense the sadness in his voice
I think i've come too close
Know he's regretting every choice
I think i've come too close
To getting to the part of him
He doesn’t want to see
And i'm the mirror that he breaks
The shards of glass that make him bleed
He's just a boy
