All of his demons Are inching their way through The cracks of the floor They're clawing at his bedsheets and morals Just to drag him away From an honest life
Oh! Feet don't fail him now He's running from his troubles and the promises he made he chose a bottle and a cloud of smoke In exchange for ghosts
I'll have you know God gave up on you
I'll have you know God gave up on you
I know that it was easier for you to walk away In the dark of the night when no one could see your shame But you can't just turn your back And pretend that you'll erase the past
But it's such a shame A shame that you won't see All your mistakes that I've learned from
As the monster you made me
I hope when you look into our eyes You realize we were better off without you
I'm more of a man than you could ever be
To this day that phone call still haunts me You can't make amends after everything that you've put us through I wish I could say I forgive you For walking out on us I wish I could tell you 'I Love You' But that would make me a liar like you But after making friends With all the characters from our bedtime stories You tried to buy my forgiveness I never wanted the money I wanted a father
I know that it was easier for you to walk away In the dark of the night when no one could see your shame But you can't just turn your back And pretend that you'll erase the past
But it's such a shame A shame that you won't see All your mistakes that I've learned from
