KIDS

I’ve been living for the kids and cursing all I want to curse

I’ll tell it like it is that god of yours should took me first

And it’s strange what you lose when the sky falls in an August rain

Like boys, like girls, like loss, like love, like pain

And this one’s for the kids

In all of their glory

Yeah this one’s for the kids

And that same old story

Forgive me for the moments I missed

The moments I missed

This one’s for them

This one’s for them

And their toothy smiles like white flags through black smoke

When you bury your kin man, it’s hard to find that silver lined hope

And that ghost in the mirror looks a little too much like them

And the August rain falls to wash my skin

And this one’s for the kids

In all of their glory

Yeah this one’s for the kids

And all they did for me

Forgive me for the moments I missed

The moments I missed

This one’s for them
