lyrics

Sits on a plastic rooftop chair
Wind blowing through your long dark hair
Disguise all your innocence and fun
Drink down another Coke and rum
Pierced through your naval cavity
Attempt to escape reality
He'll never write, he'll never call
He'll never speak to you at all

It's tempting to lock all the doors
Pretending you'll know what's in store
This fire burns from within
We've grown tired from all their sameness

What's worse than what he's done to me
You never had one memory
I know of all that he's to blame
You never even knew his name
Waiting for a sign to show
You already know life is better
And I see all your invisible tears
Growing with each passing year

It's tempting to lock all the doors
Pretending you'll know what's in store
This fire burns from within
We've grown tired from all their sameness
These empty celebrations
Telling of all their greatness
Of fathers we'll never know
Yet our hearts just, just can't let it go
Just can't let it go
Can't let it go
