Looked in her eyes
Saying I love
She smiles says it back
Its like a confession
To tell her how he feels
Hard to show emotions
Grew up with tough love
It was seen as weak
Everything deep from the heart
Scared to say something wrong
Told the truth made it worse
Lies won't make it better
A guilty conscience it was wrong
Trying to make it right
It came crumbling to pieces
Crashing down hard
Beyond repair the destruction
One cared more than the other

Stressing when shes here
Not able to sleep
Up late thinking
Not the best role model
Always looking out
Not a poster child did take risks
Not my kid taking responsibility
Always taking rejects into this family
A group of outcast coming together

Woke up took a drive
Back home fell a sleep
Composing thoughts and ideas
Reflecting a life time of moments
The good times glad they happened
Can't have good without the bad
Bad times start sign of change
Lots of growth more selective
Pick something more not less
Choose for the better keep striving
