I Just stopped by today to see how you are and how you've been
My face is just any other now, you've forgotten what it means
We won't catch up on the old times, It's too late to reminisce.
Now that we have become strangers, I wish we'd shared more good times to miss.
And I'm shocked at just how easy the days and weeks go by, till I see you
But you won't see me, we never did see Eye to.....
I have heard some say, "It's better taken in a moment, than to slowly fade away"
Daddy, Daddy, Did I surprise you then?
Daddy, you're still my Daddy, now we're both old men

Peace be with you
Have a care
Please be gentle and please play fair.
Was that too much to ask of you?
I can't understand the things you do.
But if you hold on to me, I'll keep you from Jumping
And I'll try to hold back the tide
Because we're out in open water without a hope in hell
You knew we wouldn't listen so you didn't try to tell
we followed them blindly and now we find
I can see you, I see straight through you and beyond
you broke your magic wand with the rights you wronged
I can't forgive you Father, if what they say of you is true
Earthbound men of money and power you
now we all search high and low
Who'd have guessed that you were playing hide and go seek
For the nations forgotten Daughters and Sons
who tried to run for cover as you reloaded your guns
We're out in open water without a hope in hell and you just pull together boys
And I don't see you. I can't see through you
I don't see you, I can't see through you
I'm just Betrayed, I'm Betrayed, Betrayed
Here's a Church, here's a steeple
You lied, You tricked and you preyed on the the people.
