Flipping burgers
Frying rings
In the heat of Sonic's line
L cooked up orders
Tried to smile
Tried to bide my time
One bad day a moment's lapse
My world turned inside out
A nightmare in my chef's pants
Left me full of doubt
Oh the shame as I ran hiding tears in the rain
Pants stained heart strained overwhelmed by the pain
The ballad of Timothy
Singing low singing deep
Haunted by memories
I can't seem to keep
The echoes of their fighting
My parents' endless war
Affects deep into my core
Found my escape in music
Where the pig squeals soar
A symphony of chaos
That I truly adore
Oh the shame as I ran hiding tears in the rain
Pants stained heart strained overwhelmed by the pain
The ballad of Timothy
Singing low singing deep
Haunted by memories
I can't seem to keep
Dreamed a love far across the sea
A girl in New Zealand meant just for me Revealed she was transgender
A new chapter to face
In the story of us
A heart finds its place
From the grill's fierce heat to the cold hard rain
I'm searching for a sign to heal to regain Timothy's tale not just loss and fear
But a hope that sings for anyone who'll hear
Oh the shame as I ran hiding tears in the rain
Pants stained heart strained overwhelmed by the pain
The ballad of Timothy
Singing low singing deep
Haunted by memories
I can't seem to keep
