Fill In The Blanks

(album: A Place Called Home)

Feelin´ alone, kicked out at fifteen
Father, ohoh, where am I gonna sleep?
I had a home, now hungry, tired, filthy
You had a son and walked away from me
Met your new wife, start your new life, you got no more time, busy
From house to house I sleep on the couch, whoever has room for me?

Bein´ a man comes with a price tag
What happened dad, you walked out, left for dead
Negative thoughts became reality
Having a child should not be so easy

I pay the rent, brothers school payments, your responsibilities
I used to be your priority, you got no more time, busy
Met your new wife, start your new life, you got no more time for me
Don´t understand what kind of man abandons his family

Well, I´d rather you yell and scream at me
Cause I can´t handle all this apathy
Your life seems good without me
You chose your own path, I´m not the one, I´m not your son,
at least that´s how you make me feel
From time to time I use my last dime to see if that you´re for real
"I´m sorry son, I´m not the one, I´ve got other mouths to feed"
But for myself, forgive you dad, I´ll be the man you´ll never be

Met your new wife, start your new life, you got no more time, busy
Don´t understand what kind of man abandons his family
