Where do I start?
I'll start by saying I love you Even after my heart keeps taking a beating
from you I never meant to make you
I never meant to make you mad
Where does it end?
I'm tired of carrying this baggage Ever since we were kids
We just accepted the madness I never meant to make you
I never meant to make you sad
So tell me you need me Tell me it's not easy
To carry all the burdens from the past I wanna believe it
That you really mean it That's all I ever wanted from you, dad
I'm getting out of here, here, here I'm getting out of here, here, here
When I was younger That's when I needed you most
I tried to hold on But got used to watching you go
You never meant to break me You never meant to break my heart
Now that I'm older I can see through the chaos
Angel over my shoulder Making sure I don't stay lost
I'm trying to be somebody Someone who is happy and free
So tell me you need me Tell me it's not easy
To carry all the burdens from the past I wanna believe it
That you really mean it That's all I ever wanted from you, dad
I got demons and anger and rage Feels like I've been stuck in a cage
Got all these emotions If you cut me open You'll see I am so much like you
I hate it when we're all divided And I hate that it's always one-sided
I hate every second I've been in this mess And I hate, I hate that I'll never hate you
So tell me you need me Tell me it's not easy
To carry all the burdens from the past I wanna believe it
That you really mean it That's all I ever wanted from you, dad
That's all I ever wanted That's all I ever wanted
That's all I, that's all I, that's all I That's all I ever wanted
That's all I ever wanted That's all I, that's all I, that's all I
That's all I ever wanted from you, that
That's all I ever wanted
