"The Final Say" lyrics

"The Final Say"

I feel the nostalgia seeping from these walls
I still see you charging like a rhino through the door
But I didn't understand, I was only small
Left me beat and battered, that's if you'd come home at all
To you I'm a reminder of all your flaws
Just because you hate yourself don't mean I should be ignored
A family divided is what you've caused
A father is all that I'm asking for
That's all I'm asking for, oh

Can you hear me

I figured you'd get the final say
Now that you're gone you can't answer me
A little closure is what I lack
For all the times that I won't get back
I doubt that you even cared at all
That I was never even in your world
But inside of my lungs
It hurts, it hurts

I lost my peace of mind
Not only that my drive
Don't wanna blame it all on you
But you set me up to
Fall from grace, fall from grace
Fall from grace, fall from grace
You wanted fist fights
But I would run and hide
And I knew the struggle followed you
I guess that's why you
Fell from grace, fell from grace
Fell from grace, such a waste

I figured you'd get the final say
Now that you're gone you can't answer me
A little closure is what I lack
For all the times that I won't get back
I doubt that you even cared at all
That I was never even in your world
But inside of my lungs
It hurts, it hurts

There's part of you in me
But you're not the man I wanna be
And I guess you'll never see
Just what I'll turn out to be
I'll rebuild our family
In a future you can't steal
I'll leave flowers on your grave
But won't stay to watch them fade

When we lay you down to rest
I regret that we're cut from the same cloth
And the rain comes down in waves
But the death of you washes it all away

I figured you'd get the final say
Now that you're gone you can't answer me
A little closure is what I lack
For all the times that I won't get back
I doubt that you even cared at all
That I was never even in your world
But inside of my lungs
It hurts, it hurts
