His mother is crying Cause he beat her up So she locks the door And she says a prayer To the god up above That she doesn't believe in Secretly wishing He's never coming back She's old and tired But somewhere deep inside She forgives him and she goes to bed In the room next to her's Ivan's son is crying Happiness they've known is long and dead Ivan isn't coming home for christmas He left on a rainy cold night
The candles are all lit in the kitchen But Ivan isn't coming home tonight No one could ever understand him And in his way he was asking for help But the bottle was his best And his only friend The only one that stayed until the end And no one knows where Ivan can be No one knows where he's at For all I know, he's a wandering lost soul For all I know, he could be dead
