I can’t sleep at night b/c of you
u twisted my heart
and turned it blue
you write me back
when your behind iron bars
but beyond them im as far as the stars
you drift in and out
realizing im alive
and the next minute your startin’ to get high
what the hell
you’ve fucked up twice
now its again
and I wont write this time
you’ll be all alone
like you left me
you left me to cry
my lonely self to sleep
I got depressed
but this time just pissed
me you no longer own
ill change my name
most likely to Jones
don’t shed a tear or pretend to care
don’t lie to yourself or pretend im there
I’ll bring you no comfort
you killed me with pain
you know nothing of my life
you should feel ashamed
what will you do
if they ask of your kids
say I’ve got two
and don’t know how they live
I’ve got your answer were doing just fine
im a simple old stranger
your face I can hide
your last name will haunt me
they say im you
you’ve givin me a bad name
I don’t know what to do
you kissed my ass when you got outta jail
I thought you were better
my trust you had on scales
I fought for you
when you weren’t there
and what do you do
you don’t even care
you shred me in two
you throw me away
and when you need a defense
im your second hand chair
im done with you
I’ve givin up on you
you can say im your son
but your last name now goes scarce
if you don’t give a shit
then I don’t care
ill cuss all I want
and break all the rules
my excuse will be I didn’t know any better
I saw daddy do it
and know im just scared
you’ve pushed my last button
snapped my last nerve
if they sentence you to die
I wanna pull the lever
I wanna watch you cry as I look you in the eyes
you say that your sorry
for the stupid shit you’ve done
and I say its ok
b/c im no longer your son
your no longer my dad
or lives together are done
you’ll say what’s that mean
ill say my last name is hers
my only true parent
the one that really cared
I live with your sister
but it really should be you
but the only thing you know
is what not to do
im holding this grudge
cause I was the last to give up
I was the last to say he’ll never be done
I always showed you love
I wanted to cry in your arms
but the drugs were more important
so call them your sons
say their your daughters
when you walk into court
im sure they wont care they’ll still lock you up
go straight to jail
please don’t pass go
that was your favorite game
and now its all done
to you im just a spec of dust
don’t give a shit
or scream in pain
cause for all you know
I’m not your son
