Amber is the color of your energy, I know I understand you, bonded from paternal love, so naturally, A soft melody, Your reasons, a lot of, times you learned, fueled by experience, your guidance for me, it's furious, You're gone now, with a part of me We can't find common ground, we agree to burn it down, We play it like a game, Too late, we realize that's lame, the needing in our compass is trembling, your words hurt, an eminent sting, Now I see all the futility, of resisting all these jaded realities, Don't burn what can't be rebuilt, your mind is a million miles away, your heart in the same place, fix the day, before you separate, Now I've hit the ground running, these lessons I find so cunning, The ice we skate is getting pretty thin, The water is getting warm, go ahead, swim, I miss you dad, and this is how I say goodbye, I know you cannot stay, The years start coming, and they don't stop, Anxiety's the worry on top, I know I let you down, but I'm just a slave to the night, I know I gave you hell through the years, I know you've shed countless tears, and I know you have countless tears. But now there's a single truth. There's you in everything I do,

Amber is the color of your energy, I know I understand you, bonded from paternal love, so naturally, A soft melody, Your reasons, a lot of, times you learned, fueled by experience, your guidance for me, it's furious, You're gone now, with a part of me We can't find common ground, we agree to burn it down, We play it like a game, Too late, we realize that's lame, the needing in our compass is trembling, your words hurt, an eminent sting, Now I see all the futility, of resisting all these jaded realities, Don't burn what can't be rebuilt, your mind is a million miles away, your heart in the same place, fix the day, before you separate, Now I've hit the ground running, these lessons I find so cunning, The ice we skate is getting pretty thin, The water is getting warm, go ahead, swim, I miss you dad, and this is how I say goodbye, I know you cannot stay, The years start coming, and they don't stop, Anxiety's the worry on top, I know I let you down, but I'm just a slave to the night, I know I gave you hell through the years, I know you've shed countless tears, and I know you have countless tears. But now there's a single truth. There's you in everything I do,
