Just a Shell of a... |
| Dad don’t step up like he used to |
| He stumbled on his way home |
| I nearly cried tears to the tides |
| I guess we’re all on our own |
| A man who once was a mountain |
| Is down to a few grains of sand |
| I understand where dad once would stand |
| There’s just a shell of a hell of a man |
| An old friend’s all strung-out and low-down |
| Lately he ain’t been all there |
| Old empty eyes all hollowed inside |
| And that empty thousand-yard stare |
| A man who ran like the rivers |
| Soul’s dried out like it’s been damned |
| I understand where a friend once would stand |
| There’s just a shell of a hell of a man |
| Darlin', I ain’t what I once was |
| There’s nothin' beneath this act |
| No reason or rhyme, just old rehearsed lines |
| And I hide behind this mask |
| I thought I filled up some big shoes |
| Now I’m down in the palm of your hand |
| When you help me stand, you know I still am |
| More than a shell of a hell of a man |
