There I was a father all alone there in my room
Gotten where I headed but in not a bit too soon
I was in the moment long before I arrived at noon
But the reasons weren’t so simple as the flowers were in bloom
You will never feel what I do when I say my name
You will never look out from these eyes
You will never feel the pride or live the feeling of shame I do
Every day I’m alive
Candy coated medicines you really shouldn’t take
Gonna mess you up girl they gonna keep you awake
But it surely will not lessen gravity on your weight
Gonna pull you down so low you’ll never be the same
But you still will never feel what I do when I say my name
You will never look out from these eyes
You will never feel the pride or live the feeling of shame I do
Every day I’m alive
Iron birds these heavy words are hawks to lift you up
To a sky full of bright sunlight shining sure enough
If you’ll let me hold you like you’re water in my cup
I won’t spill you out I’ll keep you under lip and love
But you still will never feel what I do when I say my name
You will never look out from these eyes
You will never feel the pride or live the feeling of shame I do
Every day I’m alive
Capo 3rd fret
