Lyrics There Was a Kid (Part 2) - Hawthorne Heights

There Was a Kid (Part 2)

There was a kid who was raised by television
Had an alcoholic father who died from bad decisions
He swore he’d never drink so he’d never end up like him
He didn’t know his father cause he couldn’t break the cycle
There was a kid who grew up in a trailer
His mother worked so hard but still she felt like such a failure
He swore he’d make it out & when he did he’d come & get her
He’d pack up all her things so she could live a little better
There was a kid who had goals & bigger dreams
Headed in the wrong direction looking for a different scene
Trying to find another kid who’s clinging to a rope
So he taught himself to sing but all he found was hope
Sing a song of hope
Sing a song of hope
It’s all I really know
Sing a song of hope
«hope means you really want someone to come back»
