When your out having your parties
and your having too much of a good time.
Do you ever start to feel sentimental?
Do I ever plague your sweet mind?
Go ahead and look at the empty chair by your table. One second ago, I was there too.
Now that I’m married you seem to think
that I lost all memories of us two.

I said to your Dad “I want a busy house”.
A home where we may have slept in on a weekday, then we’re rushing to grab a bite of toast before we’re stuck in traffic trying to get you to school on time.
A home where the laundry doesn’t always get done straight away and when it does we have sock fights and pray that the dog doesn’t end up going back to the vets to rescue one of the pair.
A home where you’ll try to eat what you can from your plate and we won’t mind if you snack later in the day. In fact we won’t mind if you wake us up to go on a midnight feast adventure in the middle of the night.
A home where you’ll be happy and grow up and maybe one day want to call your own.
I said to your Dad “I don’t want a busy house, I want a busy home”.

I didn’t know how much I wanted to be a mother,
Until I met the man who would be a fantastic father.
Now I’m waiting for you little one to bring meaning to my life.

The birds awake with song
I know it won’t be too long
Until the sun breaks at Dawn.

I gaze at the time,
it's eleven fifty-nine.
I won’t sleep tonight,
when I got you on my mind.

The young boy carries the bucket with lots of colourful fish inside.
Whilst his father coughs up his habit and begins to trail behind.
The child calls back for reassurance “can we do this tomorrow dad? At the same time?”
The man smiled weakly and began to cry.
“Of course we can, now hold your old man’s hand”.
The boy now a man, looks up from the photograph of him and his Da, and says to his partner “that was the last time… the last time we went fishing”.

I know it can get dark sometimes.
Being alone with the thoughts in your mind.
I know you might be giving up on hope.
Give me a moment to say that you’re not alone.
Please don’t give up on the fight.
I know it can be tough somedays, sometimes.
And some things are just a lesson to learn
and pass by.
You change the song at any time.
Write the next chapter in the blink of an eye.
So please don’t go turning off your light.
Give yourself a moment.
To save your life.

It’s that moment of dread,
where everything gets intense,
where I only see red.
Where I only see red.
The anger comes bursting out,
like an animal on the prowl,
It’s digging it’s teeth in now.
It’s that moment of doubt,
where these vicious thoughts of mine,
are closing in on my mind.
Everything goes red.
These vultures are picking off what’s left.
I remember every bad thing that was said.
God sometimes I wish I was dead.

She’s waiting patiently
for this all to end.
The sickness has caught on,
and there’s no medicine.
The dark thoughts
begin closing in.
No matter where you look,
there’s no happy end.

* How do I start this?
“Hello” sounds too formal,
when it comes to us.
“Hey” sounds too friendly,
like we’ve stayed in touch.
Does “Hi” sound too immature?
Or is it just me?
How about I start by saying:
Hello-hey-hi, how are you?
Do you know how long it’s been?
