where'd you go
remember the days
 you'd sing me lullabies
 holding me when i cried
 tell me whenever i was with you
 id never die
 death would never come
 nothing would ever hurt me
 but as ive grown
 i can see
 your mask has fell
 and the bells in my head
 rang and reality punched me in the face
 quite a smack
 i saw the lack of being cared for
 waiting outside of school for hours
 hoping the next car would be yours
 finding drugs around the house
 hiding them from your eyes
 looking to the skies
 hopig what god i beleived was there
 would pick me out of the millions
 the billions of people
 and help me out
 make my mom not be the example
 of what everyone says is bad
 then when i thought my angel came
 it turned out all the same
 a fake vacation
 parents fighting
 sitting in the hallway with my head down
 not wanting topeople walking by to see my tears
 then the years passed
 you leftme for what was really important
 ive felt like a failure
 a sailor lost at sea
 with no one there
 just myself and me
 all alone with time on my side
 waiting for the next tide
 to wash away my despair
 my regrets of whats not fair
 ive grown not to care
 to forget you
 you left so whats the difference
 since you put me on a plane
 alone, still a kid
 you know what i did
 stared out the window
 watching clouds go by
 flying so high in the sky
 asking myself why
 why isnt my mom right here
 but no you were down there
 getting your next fix
 so now its going on year six
 that you've been gone
 gone
 sounds so much longer
 when you say it out loud
 please save me now
 ive lost my hope
 my faith
 and how to i cope
 still feeling like a kid
 abandoned all my life
 knowing i was a mistake
 i ruined your life
 so i guess karma ruined mine
 im sorry
