Strum
D-DU-UDU
They  caught wind of the weak and tied him  to a tree today.
 Paul's  father says they're pests destined to  just be strays.
 They broke  his little back with a little game  they played.
 Boys will  be boys, isn't that what grown ups  say?
 I just stood  there, silent, rooted  to the spot.
 Marveling  at how brave I'm not.
 Don't you  see it's already too late  for them.
 Where are men  of action, can't they  do something?
 The sun was  growing faint and slipping  from God's hand.
 The day refused  to wait and rushed to  bury it's head into the sand.
 If I could only  get up and stand for  myself.
 I have to join the Little  Brutes, sadly I'm not bullet-proof.
