i've seen my family push me away
Was it the memories that kept me here
They say what doesn't kill you will make you a man
That sounds like a fool's prophecy
That you bought into wholeheartedly
And to my family, my dear family I've seen you push me away
I never thought about my past to determine my present course
Its amazing how much one can love something just to throw it away
At 23 you have no idea how far you can really fall
Or how disconnected you can become
But I taught myself fast
Because its only after we've lost everything you're free to do anything
I'll see you at the bottom of everything
Year after year we'll grow farther
After all I've done for you..
