Lyrics On Falling Leaf - Destroy The Runner

On Falling Leaf

I watch him cry
And hold onto his legs as mother waits outside for her son to come
I’ve seen to much
I haven’t seen enough
You haven’t seen enough until you have seen a family breaking up
(no one.)
It’s like nothing that you’ve felt before
(No one should ever feel like…)
(like this)
I’ll cry, but my tears won’t lock the doors
(no one…)
It’s like throwing away all of those years
(no one should ever live like this.)
I’ll cry
But my tears won’t keep you here
Or keep us together
Fathers and Mothers
Know that your sons and your daughters
Might walk a road that is harder
Because of the choices you’ve made
Or the ones that you make
And we have lived with your blood on our hands
What we’ve been waiting for now…
Now it’s our chance
We will stand
Sisters and brothers
From broken homes and broken lovers
We will fight for something true
And we will stand for something true
(no one.)
It’s like nothing that you’ve felt before
(no one should ever feel like…)
(like this)
I’ll cry, but my tears won’t lock the doors
(no one…)
It’s like throwing away all of those years
(no one should ever live like this.)
I’ll cry, but my tears won’t keep you here or us together
Where others have failed
We will make it
Where families derail
We won’t lose track
We’ll start a trail
Our kin will take it
We’ll fight tooth and nail when lies attack
