Lyrics:
Faith misplaced
I grew accustomed to the life you gave
But after all these years
You were lying to my face
Corrupted by the one you called,
“You have nothing to worry about”
Do you feel whole now?
After leaving us trapped between these crooked walls
Do you feel whole now?
While abandoning me you forgot responsibility
Time moved slowly
As the echo faded softly
You know I tried
But your words still lost their life
When meaning left me in our shattered debris
I hope your choices haunt you for eternity
We were left with the ghost of what could be
When I see you in my dreams my skin crawls
Knowing that a broken home is all she’s seen
Till you were dead inside
You covered up your lies
Back then we cared for each other
Now you’re the mother that’s abandon
ed her daughter
I can live without you
But what you don’t realize is she shouldn’t have to
The delusions of grandeur that fill your head
They’re only bringing you to the end
Look what you’ve become
You gave it all up
We were left with the ghost of what could be
When I see you in my dreams my skin crawls
Knowing that a broken home is all she’s seen
Haunted by regret
You’ll walk the earth alone
Lost to the family you’d know
