about

a song about abandonment, and reconsidering life choices

lyrics

Rob me of my dignity
You think I need your pity
Weakening our unity
My benevolent deity
Devote half my life to you
Never question if it's true
Guess I never had a clue
Life has played me for a fool

No footprints in the sand
No legs on which to stand
Missing your guiding hand
Lead me to your promised land
A stranger to my own girls
They're no longer in my world
They come and see me everyday
They will leave but I will stay

Two constant figures by my side
One Constant was my bride
The other is my stolen pride
Wish I could lay my head down
And die

Sit and watch the world go by
People living happy lives
Now that I can't even drive
It feels right to say goodbye
