Dysfunctional Domicile |
After school my stomach sinks |
From the thought of just how much he drinks |
Broken home broken dreams |
Mom and dad forsake the family thing |
So I slither in up to my room alone |
Shut the world outside and rot inside my headphones |
Nothing matters to the wounded mind of a child |
Who becomes a victim of the family home defiled |
I’ve been there once before |
Today the child is you |
Sacred vows are torn in two |
Then he drinks himself to sleep each night |
And dreams of how it could have been |
She stays away and hates the day |
She’ll ever have to see his face again |
Good enough for them is |
Good enough for me cause |
I treat myself just the way that their vow does now |
Nothing matters to the wounded mind of a child |
Who becomes a victim of the family home defiled |
I’ve been there once before |
Today the child is you |
Sacred vows are torn in two |
The pain has passed and now I see |
That bitter roots can down the biggest tree |
The broken home within my soul is buried now |
Forgiving grace I know |
Good enough for them ain’t |
Good enough for me cause |
I don’t treat myself the |
Same way their vow was now |
Cause that ain’t good enough for me |
