lyrics

My Son.

If I could have another cigarette,
One for my head and one for my nerves,
I’d do my best to keep you safe my girl.
But you’ve got to fight fair,
Keep your thoughts on track.
I was lost, I was found.
I got high, I got around,
But now I’m making up for that.

“My son, he’s a son of a gun,
But he’s the last chance that this town has.”
I’m sick of waiting for this to come.
I’m sick of waiting for this rapture to take me home.
I find now matter how hard I try,
It would be hopeless to turn and run.
I’m sick of waiting for this to come.
I’m sick of waiting for this rapture to take me home.

Let’s see how far my repentance takes us.
I know it’s wrong for me to come into your house just so that your son will save us.
But I’ve been breaking bottles on teeth and curbs for so long.
I thought I found a reason to live but my reason has come and gone.
I thought I found a reason to live, wasn’t I living all along?

So take me home.
I think I’ve praised your name enough.
But if I haven’t say the word and I’ll be gone.

“My son, he’s a son of a gun,
But he’s the last chance that this town has.”
I’m sick of waiting for this to come.
I’m sick of waiting for this rapture to take me home.
I find now matter how hard I try,
It would be hopeless to turn and run.
I’m sick of waiting for this to come.
I’m sick of waiting for this rapture to take me home.

My son, he was a son of a gun,
He couldn’t live up to expectations.
The raptures come and gone and it has been so long,
Since someone’s come to take me home.
I find now matter how hard I try,
It would be hopeless to turn and run.
The raptures come and gone and it has been so long,
Since someone’s come to take me home.

I was left behind.
