You lift your skinny fists up in the sky
|
Pack a change of clothes and left in the middle of july 2005
|
When the glass it hit the wall, the mother cried and the cops were called
|
The day, you said, goodbye
|
|
Your father left his work by 1 or 2
|
To a crying telephone, his wife was on the other side of you
|
Really did it this time, the lord looks down and begins to cry
|
They day, you said, goodbye
|
|
And i know, you've been abandoned
|
Dont abandon ship on me
|
Just know, like winter white snow
|
You've been forgiven, come back to me
|
I know right now
|
That dont mean anything
|
|
Your skinny legs bounced up into the sky
|
I tried to tell you to be careful not to jump that high
|
With your fingers crossed you fall, against the ground i saw it all
|
The day, you tried, to fly
|
|
When the red and blue lights made the scene
|
Your eyes were glazed and honestly can you remember anything
|
When the others ran away, I prayed to god they wouldn't stay
|
But sometimes he doesnt listen
|
|
From a father, to his daughter
|
My prodigal child, come back to me
|
From sinner, to his maker
|
Your prodigal son, is on his knees
|
Sweet god, please hold on to me
|
Sweet god, hold her please, oh please
|
The day, she tried, to fly
|
|
Hold me, the day i try to fly
|
