Lyrics

I love them, but I need to move away
I fall guilty of abusing all their trust,
I sometimes feel I?ve missed the chance,
And often lost the plot,
I should just talk to them,

I apologize for being the way,
I thought I had to be,
Truth to heart,
I?m scared to say I?m your son,

I?m not going to go without saying,
I feel immense attachment from this world,
Even though I?m grateful,
For being apart of the chain of things to come

Father needs the work so he can feel clean,
Mother works as hard to heed, when will it stop
I will lend a hand to fill the trailer with wood

There?s my mother falling, over there
There?s my father mourning, next to her
Why?s she still not moving?

I would scream I?d play the tape?s she made for me,
I stole the mike so you couldn?t speak,
I changed the time so you were late,
I walked away from what was right,
I meant no harm in what was that.
And I miss you too.
