Your mother don't stop crying don't ask me why, |
|
And your family don't stop asking questions |
|
Maybe she's lonely cos daddy's never there |
|
And whenever he is there's always tension. |
|
You sit in the corner cos you've got no friends |
|
and you're scared someone will beat you, |
|
hey ! Let's play happy families and pretend |
|
that someone needs you. |
|
Daddy's not coming home |
|
Cos daddy's found someone |
|
Tell you little stories your desire to hear |
|
But cover your eyes to block the screaming, |
|
Mother works nights to pay the bill's |
|
But lies can't hide the drink and bruising |
|
You sit in darkness cos no one is there |
|
To witness all the pain their inflicting, |
|
So close your eyes and drift away |
|
Life is always better when you're sleeping. |
|
Daddy's not coming home |
|
Cos daddy's found someone |
|
Sleep, close your eyes |
|
Fall, I will catch you, |
|
Sleep, close your eyes |
|
Fall, I will catch you... I will catch... |
|
I will catch you. |
