Chasing A Ghost

lyrics

All the sacrifices you never made
and promises you made but just couldn't keep
Have left me alone in my head
Thinking you’re better off dead to me.
Why can’t you see you’re better off dead?

‘Cause selfish is all that you are
And every time you come around it’s just another scar on the memories we share
If you had the energy to lay down and make me
Then stand up, and fucking raise me.

You say you’re proud of what I've become
‘cause until now I was your only son.
You say you’re proud of what I've become
But you never really cared, no you were never fucking there
To see the boy who I was grow into the man I am now.

Cold nights spent without you by my side. Where were you?
All you ever did was run and hide.
Did you ever hear my cries?
So don’t try to take credit
‘Cause who I am today is no thanks to you
I’ve lived and I’ve learned.
I made it this far without you.

I’ve dealt with the bullshit,
Of no presence just neglect
So stop playing the victim because we all know that this is your fault.

Cold nights spent without you by my side. Where were you?
All you ever did was run and hide.
Did you ever hear my cries?
So don’t try to take credit
‘Cause who I am today is no thanks to you
I’ve lived and I’ve learned.
I made it this far without you.
