a sad story about how things just don't always work out.
Lyrics
an emotional terrorist
no need for a treaty
see, her heart is
already retreating
the feelings are fleeting
better off hurt than bleeding
broken hearts club, she's needing
a better man
someone who can
understand
and hold her hand
not a child with a fear
fear of a ring
fear of eternity
and everything
that comes with life
love and laughter
who knows what this kid
is really after
all that matters
is she's left alone
inside that empty home
cubbords got no bone
miss hubbards shown
through her trials
when you give your love
to a f*** ing child
all you get in the end is regret
a pain that don't heal
and you'll never forget
alone, alone, alone, alone
alone, alone, we're all left alone
alone, alone, alone, alone
alone, alone, too late to go home
a victim of circumstance
he's barely 23
with tears in his eyes
he says he ain't ready
to be a father,
to raise a son,
his father forgot him
for a loaded gun
can't imagine the pain
that he must see
eyes wide open for days
and then weeks
then weeks met months
and months met years
years met two decades
and buckets of tears
but son stays strong
and grits his teeth
never let her in
to whats underneath
his skin, and whats within
never leave himself open
to get hurt again
so he hops in the car
and turns the keys
leaving the stigma
just beneath his skin
but he can't begin
to start the cycle again
daddy wasn't there
but this daddy will care
alone, alone, alone, alone
alone, alone, we're all left alone
alone, alone, alone, alone
alone, alone, too late to go home
headed back home
with the best intentions
love is a complicated
human invention
sometimes we forget to love what we got
because you never know
when you'll get caught
by a semi doin 85 down the highway
hope he lived to cease the day
because he'll never see the next day
life is funny that way
it was a closed casket, dressed in all black
tells her baby daddy's never coming back
tragedy strikes when we least expect it
happens for a reason, try to accept it
if you've got pain, don't reject it
and if it makes you cry, don't neglect it
alone, alone, she's left all alone
nothing left in that empty home
then it finally hits her that he's actually gone
and she never got to say so long
never got to say so long
never got to say so long
she never got
so long
