Yeah ...
|
It´s my life ...
|
My own words I guess ...
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
Have you ever loved someone so much, you´d give an arm for?
|
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
|
When they know they´re your heart
|
And you know you were their armour
|
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm ´em
|
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you?
|
And everything you stand for, turns on you despite you?
|
What happens when you become the main source of a pain?
|
"Daddy look what I made", Dad´s gotta go catch a plane
|
"Daddy where´s Mommy? I can´t find Mommy where is she?"
|
I don´t know go play Hailie, baby, your Daddy´s busy
|
Daddy´s writing this song, this song ain´t gonna write itself
|
I´ll give you one underdog then you gotta swing by yourself
|
Then turn right around on that song and tell her you love her
|
And put hands on her mother, who´s a spitting image of her
|
That´s Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady´s crazy
|
Shady made me, but tonight Shady´s rocka-by-baby
|
|
[Chorus]
|
And when I´m gone, just carry on, don´t mourn
|
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
|
Just know that I´m looking down on you smiling
|
And I didn´t feel a thing So baby don´t feel no pain
|
Just smile back
|
And when I´m gone, just carry on, don´t mourn
|
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
|
Just know that I´m looking down on you smiling
|
And I didn´t feel a thing So baby don´t feel no pain
|
Just smile back ...
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
I keep having this dream, I´m pushin´ Hailie on the swing
|
She keeps screaming, she don´t want me to sing
|
"You´re making Mommy cry, why? Why is Mommy crying?"
|
Baby, Daddy ain´t leaving no more, "Daddy you´re lying
|
"You always say that you always say this is the last time
|
"But you ain´t leaving no more, Daddy you´re mine"
|
She´s piling boxes in front of the door trying to block it
|
"Daddy please, Daddy don´t leave, Daddy - no stop it!"
|
Goes in her pocket pulls out a tiny necklace locket
|
It´s got a picture, "this´ll keep you safe Daddy, take it withcha´"
|
I look up, it´s just me standing in the mirror
|
These fuckin´ walls must be talking, cuz man I can hear ´em
|
They´re saying "You´ve got one more chance to do right" - and it´s tonight
|
Now go out there and show that you love ´em before it´s too late
|
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
|
It turns to a stage, they´re gone, and this spotlight is on
|
And I´m singing
|
|
[Chorus]
|
And when I´m gone, just carry on, don´t mourn
|
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
|
Just know that I´m looking down on you smiling
|
And I didn´t feel a thing So baby don´t feel no pain
|
Just smile back
|
And when I´m gone, just carry on, don´t mourn
|
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
|
Just know that I´m looking down on you smiling
|
And I didn´t feel a thing So baby don´t feel no pain
|
Just smile back...
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
|
The curtain closes, they´re throwing roses at my feet
|
I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
|
They´re screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
|
I glance down, I don´t believe what I´m seeing
|
"Daddy it´s me, help Mommy, her wrists are bleeding,"
|
But baby we´re in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
|
"I followed you Daddy, you told me that you weren´t leavin´
|
"You lied to me Dad, and now you make Mommy sad
|
"And I bought you this coin, it says ´Number One Dad´
|
"That´s all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin
|
"I get the point - fine, me and Mommy are gone"
|
But baby wait "it´s too late Dad, you made the choice
|
"Now go up there and show ´em that you love ´em more than us"
|
That´s what they want t
|
