Dear child
May you never stray away
You would always say
"But lately I've watched you pull life from your finger tips
This family turn to ash in your soul"
I knew love once but it wasn't alive tonight
This broken home falls apart from the inside
We are so cold on the outside
For every child that lies awake
For every mother that prays for peace
Closure will come
Could you see the look in his eyes?
Whisper another lie
Whisper another lie
Whisper another lie
He nearly drank himself to d**h
But in his mind, he's alright
A shattered shell of a man chose the bottle over a family
Another shot to chase him down
Another shot to chase him down
Stand up tall, straighten your back
You said you were a friend but it was a father that I lacked
Home is where the heart is
Home is where it hurts the most
Home is where the heart is
Home is where it hurts the most
Home is where the heart is
Home is where it hurts the most
Oh God
This broken home falls apart from the inside
We are so cold on the outside
For every child that lies awake
For every mother that prays for peace
Closure will come
