the kids are asleep
mom and dad are at the local bar
playing with each others hair
husband turns to wife says
oh what a lovely evening we're having dear
then the ground fell beneath them
as the club poured to the floor
heaven help us
we won't lie to ourselves
or anyone anymore.
i'm awake now.
can you blame me
for crying out loud?
you divorced when i was a baby.
ow i'm all grown up
look at me
i'm fine.
all my life i was told maybe.
maybe one day kid you'll grow up
and be alright.
well i never
i never
believed the words
they'd leave on the front steps.
they seemed so bland
and absent of sincerity.
so one day i graduated
moved to a town two hours away.
i figured maybe the kids would be different here.
but it turns out their all the same.
when will i ever get this right?
or will i ever get this right?
when will i ever get this right?
or will i ever get this right?
oh no i'm alone again.
oh well that's the way it is.
oh no i'm alone again.
oh well guess that's just the way it is.
come tomorrow
i'll wake up new.
come tomorrow
i'll wake up new.
