Son you know
I can’t take no more
The prayers, the dope
I am forced to let go

You’re so mad
What got into you?
Now your choices
Are burning the love in you

Son, lay low
I can’t take no more
My hands are cold
I’m forced to let go

I wish I never ever lost your touch
I can recall the flashing lights
The man running
If I knew how to erase those memories
Save my little boy from the falling leaf

Son you know
I can’t take no more
The prayers, the dope
I am forced to let go

All your life
I've been there for you
But your choices
Are burning the love in you
