I wouldnt change the distance between you and me

I wouldnt change the the fact you weren't here at the start

I know you did the best you could, but you still think you came up short

the thing i would change is the hate I kept in my heart

I know you felt the same pain

because your fathers son was left alone

the heavyness and oppression

of the feeling of lead in your bones

I know you did the best could

but it doesnt change the fact i wish you would

and that you werent there to carry my shoulder pads after a loss

to tell me told me to hold my head up high

as tears fell from my face like raindrops from the sky

as my heart fell apart

when the girl who told me she loved

admitted it was a lie

to be here to guide me

but instead I swim through a man's life alone

but I'm glad I came to realize

before we were to old

that you've always loved, no matter how much you've scold

Now that I've got the chance,

I have something to say,

to get p off my chest, before youre gone and away

I love you dad

I havent always been the best son, 

but now that I've forgiven you,

will you forgive me for the damage I've done?
