A little boy he was loved but not quite good enough
Her kisses sweet but his father’s touch was a little rough
Love always made him want to pull away
And that’s what he did
‘Cos he couldn’t see another way
Father’s angry words playing on repeat
He never looked too deep inside for fear of what he’d see
And as soon as he’d get home he’d want to run away
So he left them
‘Cos he couldn’t see another way
I don’t want to see everything you see
Even though your darkness stays a little piece of me
But now I know why you’d always turn away
Despite trying every day
You couldn’t see another way
Keeping tabs on who’s naughty and who’s nice
He keeps his southern whiskey and his bitterness on ice
And he railed at the injustice every day
And he never stopped
‘Cos he couldn’t see another way
I don’t want to see everything you see
Even though your darkness stays a little piece of me
But now I know why you’d always turn away
Despite trying every day
You couldn’t see another way
He met a woman who loved him just as he was
But nothing she could do to prove that he would be enough
So he told her that he was poorly made
And he left her
‘Cos he couldn’t see another way
I don’t want to see everything you see
Even though your darkness stays a little piece of me
But now I know why you’d always turn away
Despite trying every day
You couldn’t see another way
