Half past five, and he walks through the door
Empty eyes wearing clothes from the day before
Dinnertime something doesn't feel right
Teary eyes and another broken night
Look up from my plate, questioning his face
Sound of silence fills the room, only five years old too young to find the words but old enough to feel the tears of hurt
Its been awhile since you went away and left me all alone, its been awhile since I lost my faith in you
Its been awhile since you've been okay for loving you for you
But at least I know the truth
Here it is, you're gone for good
Thirteen candles on the cake but only has one wish to make, that he'll have his father back one day
Friends come up to him and say everythign will be okay don't give up on hope you'll find a way
It's been awhile since you went away and left me all alone
It's been awhile since I lost my faith in you
Its been awhile since I've been okay with loving you for you
But at least I know the truth, your gone for good
You left me alone, with my broken trust, replacing your memories with dust
I pray for your soul
You'll fight for control before your addicitons while you are
It's been awhile since you ran away and left me all alone, its been awhole since I lost my faith in you, It's been awhile since I've been okay with loving you for you
But at least I know the truth, and here it is, you're gone, you're gone for good
