Lyrics
When I was a girl I did my best to hide We all had to run for cover From my father and his drunken pride He'd leave us alone But never for too long He'd beat up on my mother And tell us he'd be the only one How could I learn, learn to love From somebody so abusive? I pulled back and went away To nurse my heart's bruises Today I got the news That his heart gave out I know I'll never have another But what father darkens his own house? Well, I heard what they say That family's not for choosing Is closure real? Will I find peace? Or is it just an illusion? All I know is it's on me Is there no chance for any grief? We can't decide who lives or dies No, you can't decide It's a cold cold sword It's a closing door And what should have been with time on my side It's a bright red sound And try as I might to shut it all out Now I see this life is all mine He always let me know How I let him down It's so painful to remember But it's all the same 'cause he's not around Well, I heard what they say That family's not for choosing Is closure real? Should I find peace? Or is it just an illusion? All I know is it's on me Is there no chance for any grief? We can't decide who lives or dies No, you can't decide It's a cold cold sword It's a closing door And what should have been with time on my side It's a bright red sound And try as I might to shut it all out Now I see this life is all mine It's a cold cold sword It's a closing door And what should have been with time on my side It's a bright red sound And try as I might to shut it all out Now I see this life is all mine
