lyrics

Kicked around since the start of war
Don’t know what I’m fighting for
Someone who can take me in
I’ll put up with all your selfish complicated whims

It’s been awhile since they took my folks
With people’s fears it’s hard to cope
Tortured by the constant change
All I need is somewhere I can finally call home

Now I can’t turn back, it’s been way to long
I can see you’re here, but the damage has been done

I’m a broken lad, only just turned twelve
Haven seen the worst, part of all the people flowing thru my life

Now I can’t turn back, it’s been way to long
I can see you’re here, but the damage has been done

I’m a broken lad, only just turned twelve
Haven see the worst, In my own private hell

Even with your smile, and your warm embrace
I’m not worthy of, can’t you see it in my face

I’ll just wander off, in my own sweet time
Bringing with myself, a real sense of loss with all my brief
Encounters they all seem to end in lies.
