Sighdafekt - Dear Sam lyrics

[Verse 1: Sam Mackey] Dear sam I see you sitting on the floor Leaning against your bedroom door Your arms crossed, wrapped tightly around your body Knees pressed to your chest, you feel alone who can hurt ya? Anybody I look away for a minute; take a glance around your room All I can think is, "man I pray somebody saves you soon" I see a single bare mattress with only a pillow Sticking out from under it I notice a knife and to the middle... I see your homework The teacher gave you a D for all your hard work I know you gave your best and that's even worse But I give you an A for surviving the day Your only ten, I want to give you full permission to play But I know that you can't look away for a second Trying to stay safe takes your full blown attention You can barley hold your head up, this is all too heavy But I'm here now, so lay it down and put your head on me [Hook] [Verse 2: Sam Mackey] I sit down beside you, begin to pray for you You can't see me no I wish you could maybe your breathing would slow I can hear the screaming from the upstairs and for you this isn't rare If all they're doing is screaming then maybe god answered a prayer You doubt it Beginning to rock back and forth, tears streaming down your face Looks like your been hit by a train but no that's not the case "Please daddy please just leave me be" "Why mommy why not even a hug goodbye? Daddy says you don't love me, you both wish I'd die?" "I'm trying to ignore but I'm starting to think that wasn't a lie" I look into your eyes I see a little girl losing her life I wish I could hold you tight and promise everything would be alright I'll carry you in my arms and walk you out onto the street And there's the sun that you never thought you'd meet [Hook] [Verse 3: Sam Mackey] I wanna take your hand and help you understand There's more to life then living in fear of your mom and old man I love you Sam, you're the best I've ever had I regret doing this to you I'm almost worst than dad You deserve to feel safe, you deserve to feel loved But your situation is unfortunate and f**ed up So now you got resentments toward yourself And the guy up above, deprived of love You lost a huge part of your life I recognize that And I promise you we never have to go back I'm gonna let you be a child, run and play I'm not leaving you I promise you I'm here to stay I'll hold you in my arms and ill heal you back up Your worth more than this, f** I've had enough You're hurting and you're scared You don't know what to do But I'm here now to help you Dear Sam, I see you
