Broken Home - Sawyer Fredericks

Up the steps to the shattered windows

A broken home

Daddy’s staring at the scene

What did I do now?

Where did I go wrong?

Father’s tears tell me

Mother’s gone

And I’m not welcome no more

Screaming at me

Sayin', «This is your fault

That she’s gone»

«So get out of my house

You worthless son»

And he slams the door

And I am born again

Seems my family is dead

And this cold night

Is taking me in

All of my anger

Has brought me to tears

I take my first steps

With nothing but fear

Saw my mother

She was bruised and weeping

Guess Daddy didn’t let her

Go so easy

I was just happy

To see her breathing

Even if she

Ain’t got no time for me

No, she ain’t

Got no time for me

Hey, children

Homes unbroken

Family all loving

None of you

Were ever unwanted

And you say, «Mother»

She’s right there

And I say, «Father»

I wake up in fear

But all of my anger

Left over the years

And with my anger

Left my fear

So up the steps

To the shattered windows

A broken home
