Hook:
Oh, you can't hear me cry
See my dreams all die
From where you're standing, on your own.
It's so quiet here, and I feel so cold
This house no longer, feels like home.
Verse:
Please, stop pushing Mom
Mom, put down the phone
It's times like this
That I'm wishing I was grown
If I were big and strong
I could stop what's going on
Now the cops have been called
And my Dad's already gone
Man, they cuffed him right in front of me |
So much for a kid to see
Today was so perfect though
How could this be happening
Mom's in the back room crying out hysterically
I'm pacing back and forth
Trying to keep my sanity
Sister's at my side
Acting like she's glued to me
I've gotta stay strong
I've gotta hold up for my family
At five years old, it's a big responsibility
Mom, I've got them,
But who's here supporting me?
We're headed to my Aunt's
Mom has packed a few things
Got me so scared
Just in time for Halloween
Tonight was trick or treat
But the trick was on me
The saddest little clown
That you ever did see
Hook:
Oh, you can't hear me cry
See my dreams all die
From where you're standing, on your own.
It's so quiet here, and I feel so cold
This house no longer, feels like home.
Verse:
It's been a few years
Since I got up out that home
But the pain that it caused
No one really knows
See I'm 24 now
With the stress that's all my own
But no one can take that blame
Cause the fault is all my own
Reacting on emotions
Made me put my goals on hold
So I'm fighting through my darkness
And I'm struggling alone
If you ever want to find me
I swear I'll never hide
I've put my chips all down,
Will you stay here by my side?
You're manipulating life
But it's really in your mind
That evil grin you wear
When you're really locked inside
I'll break your walls down
One brick at a time
Please open up your eyes
You are not really blind
Take my hand please
A son is what you'll find
Inch a little closer
Take it one step at a time
I'll squeeze a little harder
When your thoughts step out of line
Please don't throw it all again
We can finish it this time.
Hook:
Oh, you can't hear me cry
See my dreams all die
From where you're standing, on your own.
It's so quiet here, and I feel so cold
This house no longer, feels like home.
