Father

Brought to a world in which we live
Blinded in so many ways
Reality clears as my father's tears
Teach me so many things

To trust one's self when you're all alone
And to live for the day as it's all you own

Working for a new day like my father
I think I'm gonna make it for another day

Misguised fools never learn the rules
That's why they fail
Souls torn apart to make a mark
In someone else's game

Surrounding pain as it's all you know
And to live for the day as it's all you own

I look to the blue skies to find my place
In a world that has no time
Disconnect me from the past; the future's what I seek
As it comes clear, as it rains around your head
As it blows into your [sic], flows into your head
To escape my make me dead [sic]
Can I live through this day as it's all I own?
